Roscrea Steps Up to Help the People of Ukraine

.The most amazing movement yet, which began through direct contact via Abigail Ryan and
Deputy Michael Lowry, with Doctor Olga Fostyak a doctor in Lviv City Children’s Hospital,
Ukraine who provided a substantial list of vital medical supplies. Through many contacts and
much generosity in Ireland, UK and France a truck load of these medical supplies was sourced
and delivered directly to the hospital.

The wonderful generosity and sterling work by the community of Roscrea and Saint Cronan’s
Association and its businesses have added supplies to the 30 loads of badly need essential
medical equipment, food, clothing and essential items being transported to Ukraine from
Ireland and UK in the past 14 days to provide aid to these devastated communities.

In partnership with Oakland International UK, Capital Transport and Shipping Ltd., Roscrea,
headed by Managing Director Enda Maher, supported and managed the sourcing of essential
supplies and also co-ordinated the major logistics and transport requirements to move the
supplies from Ireland and UK to Ukraine.

Thanks also to large Irish companies, Valeo Foods, Simply Baked, Quitman O Neil, Sysco and
many more who generously donated large quantity of supplies for the Ukrainian people.
