A lot of you have been asking how you can help support Ukrainians who are
facing a horrific and devastating attack by Russia’s President Putin.

Our team compiled a few crucial actions that you can take: 

 1. If you’re able to, [ [link removed] ]please consider donating to vetted Ukrainian
relief organizations here. Our team has compiled a list of verified,
trustworthy organizations that you can split a donation to at the link
above. The organizations include:

CARE, an international humanitarian organization that has set up an
emergency Ukrainian Crisis Fund with the goal of providing immediate
support for 4 million people. Donations will go toward providing
Ukrainians with water, food, supplies, hygiene kits, immediate
support and aid, and cash.

Razom for Ukraine, a Ukrainian-American nonprofit working to not
only support emergency response to the war, but also to provide a
whole host of resources for people looking to help, including a
round-up of [ [link removed] ]rallies and events for people interested in showing
their support for the #StandWithUkraine movement.

Nova Ukraine, a 501(c)3 registered non-profit organization dedicated
to providing humanitarian aid to Ukraine and raising awareness about
Ukraine in the US and throughout the world.

The Ukrainian Congress Committee of America (UCCA), which has
launched a nationwide fundraising campaign to provide vital
humanitarian aid to this population, as well as to the front-line
defenders. Together with partners, they have secured warehouses in
several regions where humanitarian aid supplies can be securely
stored.

 2. Contact your members of Congress and ask them to support raising the
refugee cap. Alexandria and other officials are calling on the U.S. to
raise our refugee cap to allow Ukrainians, along with other victims of
war such as Afghans, to resettle in the U.S. We should do our part to
accept families, not turn them away.

 3. Support anti-war demonstrations and your local Ukrainian community
organizations. The people’s will matters and we are seeing that
anti-war demonstrations in Russia and beyond are making a political
impact. Do not think your presence and voice don’t matter. They do.

 4. Only share verified information. In rapidly developing situations such
as these, misinformation and propaganda can spread easily even by
those with good intentions. If you are going to share something, ask
yourself if it’s a verified, trustworthy source. 

Lastly, if you have a prayer, meditation, or contemplation practice, it
can be helpful to focus the mind and allow us to keep putting one foot in
front of the other for the day ahead. 

Together we will continue to condemn any and all violence and stand in
solidarity with all communities who are facing the threats of violence and
war. 

Pa’lante,

Team AOC 💙💛
