Across Ukraine, the sound of buzzing hives has gone quiet.
War, extreme weather, and ongoing conflict are devastating bee populations across Ukraine. After months of drought left bees without food, an unusually harsh winter further weakened colonies, pushing many to collapse. What was once a stable and productive sector is now struggling to survive.
Ukraine is a top 5 honey producer in the world making beekeeping critical to Ukraine's economy. But the repeated loss of hives have left beekeepers struggling to feed their families and their bees. They urgently need support.
Greater Good Charities is working with trusted local partners, including the Brotherhood of Ukrainian Beekeepers and Help on Bee Wings, to support beekeepers on the ground. By providing essential supplies like food sources, hive care materials, and tools, we help stabilize colonies and give beekeepers a path to recovery. This support allows them to rebuild their work and continue protecting the bees in their care.
A donation of $130 can provide a beekeeping kit, helping restore hives and sustain a beekeeper’s livelihood. These resources are critical to keeping colonies alive through ongoing challenges and ensuring that pollination can continue.
Your support helps protect bees, strengthen communities, and preserve a vital part of our global ecosystem. Donate now to help save bees in Ukraine, as well as support the people working to protect them.
