COMMUNITY Despite suffering sieges, massacres and displacement because of the Russian invasion, Ukrainians have defied expectations and put up a strong fight. The same can be said for the hardworking team at Bakehouse in Kyiv.
When war first broke out, the bakery’s chef and owner, Anna Makievska, left the country with her two young children. Her employees, however, refused to close shop. Not only are the people behind Bakehouse still operating the business, but they have been giving away up to 1,000 loaves of bread every day since the beginning of the conflict to soldiers, seniors and hospital workers.
Their kindness has inspired others: When English sourdough-bread baker Andrew Green heard about Bakehouse’s story, he enlisted other chefs to donate recipes for a charity cookbook, Knead Peace. Proceeds from the project go to the Disasters Emergency Committee’s Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal.
