The money raised is going to the Irish Red Cross.
A midlands store is donating all profits from this coming's Saturday trading to the Red Cross Ukrainian Appeal.
Ganly's in Athlone says they felt the need to do something tangible to help.
They've set a high target to raise €50,000 - a sum which far exceeds a standard Saturday trading - and are contacting suppliers for their support and arrange for fund raising facilities in store for the public to use.
Staff are also donating days from their annual holiday allowance towards the fund.
