The Last Mile Project
Past District Governor and Honorary Rotary Club of Coquitlam member Bernie Pregler was approached in early June by the Dmitry from the Rotary Club of Kyiv about collaborating on a new Humanitarian Aid Program for Ukraine. Although a significant amount of humanitarian aid was sitting in Ukrainian warehouses inside the Ukraine-Poland border, distribution within Ukraine was difficult due to larger truck being the target of missile strikes. Dmitry expressed the need to purchase four midsize vans to help distribute the food, medical supplies and clothing to the more distant regions of Ukraine, as vans were scarce within Ukraine.
