You will have all have seen in the news about the events happening in Ukraine at the moment, and may be wondering how you can help.

 

We have collated several verified fundraisers that will help support the people of Ukraine directly, as this is the best way we can help at the minute as cash can get items that are needed on the ground quickly, rather than transporting donated goods hundreds of miles.

 

Some are organisations based in Ukraine and some are national and international charities, where donations can go quickly and directly to the places where it is needed.

 

We do not endorse any fundraiser in particular, and they all have a different focus of their fundraising efforts.  We will update this page regularly, with ways to support.
