In mid-July 2014, the ministry had released an invitation to take part in a campaign supporting the children in Ukraine as they start the new school year.
The campaign's deadline expired this week, and the next step will be delivery to Ukraine.
Initially, the humanitarian assistance drive was to be for military personnel only, but news of it spread throughout the community, prompting positive action. Many people donated money with which brand new supplies were purchased, the ministry adds.
