Since the onset of the war in 2022, more than 6.5 million Ukrainian refugees have fled their homes. Among the refugee population, 47% are women and 33% are children. As of 2024, over 15 million people in Ukraine are in desperate need of varying forms of humanitarian support.

JRS, together with partners, have accompanied and served more than 110,000 people through the One Proposal since the beginning of the conflict. The ongoing response has helped keep hope alive in the midst of the crisis, but the need continues to grow.
