The Kyiv bakery, Bakehouse, has gained attention for its refusal to shut down amid the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war. In the face of danger and uncertain times, the bakery has continued to operate and provide for its community.
Bakehouse has made a significant impact in its efforts to provide for those in need, donating over 100,000 loaves of bread to those affected by the conflict. The bakery founder, Anna Makievska, explains that they "couldn't close the bakery and leave people without bread, especially during such a difficult time."
Anna and her team have faced challenges, including limited resources and threats to their safety, but their determination to serve their community has kept them going. They have also received support from local volunteers and organizations, helping to ensure that the bakery can continue to operate.
