The Santa Clara Convent Foundation, led by Sister Lucía Caram, launched a new humanitarian corridor this Friday in Barcelona, consisting of 21 vehicles traveling 3,000 kilometers to Odessa.

The mission, named Caravan of Kindness, departed following a ceremony at the Sagrada Família. The convoy includes ten ambulances and various support vehicles donated by institutions such as the Mossos d'Esquadra police force and the Barcelona City Council.

"Kindness must cross Europe. Ambulances are a target for Putin because they want to exterminate the population."

Lucía Caram · Director of the Santa Clara Convent Foundation
The vehicles are loaded with power generators, medical equipment, and winter supplies to combat the extreme conditions in Ukraine. Around fifty volunteers are participating in the drive to deliver these essential resources directly to the front lines.
