Bake for Ukraine is a non-profit organization that shares traditional Ukrainian bread recipes and collects donations to help Ukrainian bakeries contribute to the security of the local food supply during the war.
It was launched by people who share a common passion for artisanal bread. Coming from diverse backgrounds — Ukraine, Slovakia, Germany, and Russia — they bring together a strong international network within the food sector, particularly in baking. Today, their cause is supported by 12 volunteers. https://bakeforukraine.org/team/ https://bakeforukraine.org/team/
Driven by chefs, pastry chefs, bakers, and food professionals, the organization harnesses the unifying power of gastronomy to support Ukrainian populations affected by the conflict.
Bake for Ukraine aims to secure the local food supply by supporting local bakeries and farmers, mainly in the cities most impacted by the war. The organization currently supports bakeries in Kyiv, Bucha, Kherson, Odesa, and Kharkiv by providing essential ingredients, supplying and maintaining critical equipment, and covering bakers’ salaries.
In addition, two mobile bakeries have been acquired in Odesa to operate during power outages and deliver bread to frontline towns and villages.
