To help get supplies quickly to Ukrainian refugees, Amazon has reconfigured a warehouse in Slovakia from a center to fill customer orders to one collecting, preparing and distributing donated supplies.
Amazon announced Tuesday it had converted nearly 54,000 square feet of warehouse space in Slovakia to create a new "humanitarian aid hub," according to a blog post on the company's website.
The new warehouse space will connect a network of fulfillment centers across Europe to move donated blankets, clothing, hygiene items and other shelter materials. That network is preparing and delivering 4 million donations of critical supplies, Amazon said.
