Show support by donating to Ukrainians we know personally, that will directly receive this aid.
Dearest Friends,
Thank you all for your support, words of encouragement, and prayers.
Many of you have reached out wanting to help and show support for Ukraine. As we’re now past the initial shock of recent events, we need to act and start strategically helping those that are now facing a new reality. Many have lost their homes, are sheltering in make-shift bunkers (i.e., metros, basements, cellars, etc.), and are facing an enormous amount of unknowns ahead.
There are many trustworthy (see below) vetted organizations raising funds as well, however, our initiative is to raise funds specific to friends/family we know and get them the support directly.
Here is what the money will go towards:
- Transitional housing/shelter
- Water & Food
- Transportation costs for getting to countries that can host refugees/displaced
- Medicine & medical supplies
- Toiletries & personal hygiene
- Clothes & shoes (many people left with only one suitcase or backpack)
- Phone bills
Other ways to support Ukraine:
1. Donate to Ukraine’s army/military:
National Bank of Ukraine (you need to copy/paste the SWIFT information)
2. Donate to trustworthy organizations that have been vetted:
Ukrainian Cultural Center of New England
3. Support The Kyiv Independent

Once again, our friends, thank you so much for the love and support.
~Glory to Ukraine, and glory be to the heroes~
