Over the past 2015 Viciebsk regional organization of the Belarusian Red Cross Society have been issued vouchers in 1117 forced migrants who have moved to the Viciebsk region of the eastern regions of Ukraine. The total amount of vouchers issued amounted to more than a billion rubles.

Timely assistance to the Ukrainians who settled in the Viciebsk region, was made possible by a charitable project of the International Committee of the Red Cross "Supporting Belarusian Red Cross Society to assist the displaced people of Ukraine". In addition to financial assistance, in the event of threats to the health or life of IDPs in Ukraine, they will be paid for medical services and medical goods.

The ability to receive financial assistance from the Ukrainian migrants will continue until June 1 of the current year. Employees of Viciebsk Bock will issue a monthly Ukrainian citizens vouchers for the purchase of food and hygiene products.
