Alphonso Davies and Lucy Bronze support the UN's Ukraine appeal


29 03 2022

Footballers including Alphonso Davies, Lucy Bronze and Asmir Begović have lent their support to the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) and World Food Programme's new global appeal, #Football4Ukraine, aiming to raise funds for displaced Ukrainians by inspiring fans, 'wherever they are and whatever club they support.

.. to stand together as one team and support people driven from their homes by the war in Ukraine by donating to the appeal'. England women's team right-back Bronze commented 'I'm heartbroken by this situation. Millions of people including many children have been forced to flee their homes in Ukraine with no idea of what the future holds or when they will be able to return home. It’s even more shocking to think that this is on top of the more than 84 million people already displaced around the world'.
