Landry & Kling Global Ship Solutions'
humanitarian efforts have not only provided support to over 3,000
Ukrainian refugees living onboard accommodation ships in
Scotland but have also inspired
the children's nonprofit Mission of Innocents and earned
recognition from the ISOA (International Stability Operations
Association).
MIAMI, July 31, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Landry &
Kling Global Ship Solutions, leaders in sourcing and logistics for
vessel charters, floating accommodations, and cruise events, is a
member company of ISOA, the only worldwide association that
exclusively and effectively represents the stability sector. The
association recently presented Landry & Kling with a 2024
Global Impact Award for their work with displaced Ukrainians in
Scotland. This award recognizes
the company's efforts and serves as a testament to the global
impact of their humanitarian work.
Ukrainian Refugees Find Warm Welcome On Accommodation
Ships
In 2022, anticipating an influx of tens of thousands of
Ukrainian refugees, the Scottish Government was in dire need of
solutions to a severe housing shortage. Landry & Kling
Global Ship Solutions, a leader in ship-based housing, was
contacted to support their efforts, and the company deployed two
vessels to Edinburgh and
Glasgow within two weeks. Over the
next year and a half, more than 3,000 Ukrainians, including 800
children, found safety, solace, and renewed joy onboard both
ships.
Landry & Kling's mission was to fulfill the Scottish
Government's "Warm Scot's Welcome Campaign," which aimed to provide
meals, accommodation, trauma support, ESOL classes, job training,
and welfare for displaced Ukrainians. Each ship was a beacon of
hope, offering community and comprehensive services.
No aspect of the refugees' well-being was overlooked, from
housekeeping and laundry to three healthy and culturally
appropriate meals daily, medical services, recreational facilities,
24/7 security, and onboard support services.

Children of Ukraine Inspire Mission of Innocents
Nonprofit
Living alongside displaced families, Landry & Kling's
CEO, Joyce Landry, was deeply moved
by the plight of the children onboard and inspired by their
courage and resilience. In response, Landry initiated and funded
enrichment programs to support the children's well-being and
provide leadership opportunities for Ukrainian adults. The
company's philanthropic commitment to the children's programs led
to the formation of Mission of Innocents and its recognition as a
501(c)(3) non-profit.
The organization's mission is to bring joy to children displaced
from their homes due to war, environmental disasters, and political
or economic instability. Mission of Innocents nurtures their
self-worth and promotes healing through expression, using art,
music, dance, education, sports, and play.
Since its founding, Mission of Innocents has positively impacted
the lives of Ukrainian refugee children in Scotland. The enrichment programs, including
the celebrated Children's Choir, continue to thrive on land through
partnerships with local community organizations. To learn more

While Landry & Kling remains committed to providing
housing solutions for the global migrant crisis, Mission of
Innocents is poised to expand its impact on other displaced
communities, offering hope and support where it's needed most.
