In solidarity with Ukraine – donate your items [Update]

The flag of Ukraine
Gdańsk Tech International Relations Office encourages staff and students to participate in the collection of items for refugees from Ukraine. In this difficult time, let us show our solidarity with the Ukrainian nation as an academic community.

All the collected items will be transferred to the Students Affairs Office/Students Houses, which is preparing dormitory number 11 in Brzeźno for the possible admission of refugees from Ukraine. In student dormitory no. 11, 160 places will be waiting for Ukrainians fleeing the war. The rooms need to be equipped with things and equipment necessary for everyday life. In case dormitory no. 11 won’t be used as a place of temporary stay for refugees, the collected items will be handed over to one of the aid organizations.

When?

The collection will start on Monday, February 28th (and will last until further notice). The collection point will be open from Monday to Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
