“We are donating $1.1 million of needed supplies to Mission 823 to help the Ukrainian people to continue to get the things they need,” said Winn-Dixie Regional Vice President Shawn Sloan.

Those supplies include truckloads of nonperishable food and toiletries, which are desperately needed by refugees and people who are still in Ukraine but are running low on necessary items.Mission 823, a rescue organization based out of Central Florida, has a team in Ukraine helping people escape Russian forces and providing aid to refugees. When supplies started running low, Southeastern Grocers got involved to help the organization help the people of Ukraine.

Mission 823, which has teams in Poland in addition to Ukraine, will be distributing the donated supplies. And this is also why Southeastern Grocers is ramping up its support -- because what’s happening in Ukraine doesn’t go unnoticed.
