As we all know, there is a lot going on in the world right now. Unfortunately, there is distress in the Ukraine and as people on this planet, I truly believe it is our duty to take care of other human beings and help the best we can. Homes, schools and hospitals are being invaded, air strikes are being launched, makeshift shelters are what a lot of people are living in now and so much worse. Millions of lives are at risk and if you are looking for ways to help, here are some great resources!
Save The Children
Save the children reports over 7.5 million children are in danger in the Ukraine. They are at risk for emotional distress, physical harm and displacement. The children are suffering from an adult led war, which is horrifically unfair. They are living in a war zone and every single donation is important. Save the Children is distributing hygiene kits, winter survival kits, access to education, psychosocial support and cash grants for food, water, rent, all necessities!
B Strong
Bethenny Frankel’s global emergency assistance foundation is fully immersed in helping those in the Ukraine. They have specific booths for various needs (food, water, hygiene, etc.), are partnering with local travel agencies to help with travel, raising money to help refugees, sending food, securing crisis kits to send and so so much more!
World Central Kitchen
This international organization responds to devastating humanitarian crises with food for those suffering. They are currently on the ground in Poland, helping families that are fleeing the Ukraine.
Amnesty USA
Amnesty USA is an international organization that works with those in crises to provide support. They help with refugee rights, human rights, individuals at risk and so much more. The biggest issues at the moment are health and safety in the Ukraine and Amnesty is raising funds to aid with that.
Voices of Children
This is a charitable foundation that is working to support children in Eastern Ukraine. They provide both psychosocial and psychological support to the children there via several ways such as art therapy, mobile psychologists, individual help and more! This is something that is just as important as physical survival supplies. Children are very impressionable and it is important that not only are their basic human needs met, but their minds need to be taken care of, as well.
Sunflower of Peace
This is a fundraising page to support first aid backpacks for paramedics and doctors working on the front line. They need as many supplies as possible and these bags are a lifeline for a lot of people. Each backpack can help 5-10 people and contains bandages, first aid items, medical instruments and other necessary survival items in extreme environments.
CARE
CARE is accepting donations to help distribute water, food, hygiene kits, psychosocial support, immediate aid and cash to those suffering in the Ukraine. They are prioritizing women, the elderly and families. You can send as much as you’d like to, as every penny counts!
Sophie and lili -Instagram Account
This page is making donations to rescue.org. This Instagram page is a small business who is making it their mission at the moment to help with the Ukrainian crisis. All proceeds from their stickers are going to help the Ukraine. Rescue.org is an organization that helps those who have been kicked out of their homes from war and conflict. They aid in various supports and every single penny counts.
Unicef
Unicef is an international organization that has various missions to aid groups of people who are suffering. They are dropping off survival supplies as close to lines of contact as possible, bringing safe water in, aiding in mobile child protection teams and making sure children and families are getting the help they need during this time.
International Medical Corps
This global nonprofit organization works to aid in health related needs to those who need it. They are helping those suffering in the Ukraine with both mental and physical help. Access to these communities are expanding with the help of donations.
Service 95
This Instagram account has a ton of resources on ways we can help the Ukraine. They help international crises and most importantly, are full of truthful information. Reliable resources are important and if you are going to share any information, I recommend making sure it is reliable!

My heart goes out to the people of Ukraine, especially the children. Thank you for sharing these ways on how to help and support them.
We can help in many ways. If you think you are only donating a small amount or small things, when a lot of people do it, it would be a massive amount of help. Small gestures go a long way.

It’s painful to see what’s happening in Ukraine. I am glad that so many people are willing to help them. I went to donate clothes and beddings for Ukraine people recently through one organisation in our town and there were so many people donating. Thank you for sharing this information!
Very painful to see so many innocent families scared for their lives. Any donation helps!
