Europe
On Christmas Day, Father Ángel visited the refugee camp in Chernivtsi, Ukraine, just two weeks after it suffered an attack that caused significant property damage. Despite the attack, the camp remains operational, providing a hot meal and shelter to hundreds of people every day. In 2024, we have maintained our commitment to the Ukrainian people, standing by them in a war that continues to devastate millions of civilians.

During our intervention at the hospital, various medical activities were carried out, including general surgery and ear, nose, and throat consultations for 686 people, as well as 126 surgical procedures. In terms of donations, we contributed 48% of the direct funds needed for the campaign, in addition to providing various dental and school supplies.
In December, Father Ángel had the honor of meeting with the Prime Minister of Iraq, Mohammed Shia al-Sudani, during his official visit to Spain. Together, they committed to advancing future initiatives and laid the groundwork for new projects in areas such as education and health, strengthening mutual support.
