EMERGENCY ALERT
Mercy Corps teams are at the Ukraine border. Send your support for families in crisis in Ukraine and 40+ countries.


The devastating crisis in Ukraine is worsening with each passing day.

The civilian toll continues to climb. Families are being driven apart. Explosions in Kyiv and other major cities are forcing families into basements and bomb shelters. More than 677,000 people have already fled the country — and the number of refugees could swell to as many as 4 million if the conflict continues.

Events are changing rapidly, and Mercy Corps is mobilizing an immediate humanitarian response to this unfolding catastrophe. We must not hesitate to act — the stakes are too high.

Please, now is the time to send your urgent support to Mercy Corps teams who are helping families facing conflict and crisis in Ukraine and in 40+ countries around the world.

Ukraine
People gather to board trains as they flee Ukraine.
Mercy Corps team members arriving at the border describe what they are seeing:
     
"Ukrainians are mostly crossing into Romania by foot, the majority women and children who have been separated from their families. They arrive very disoriented and in shock, and many don’t know what their next move is. These border towns are overwhelmed and will be unable to manage this growing influx of refugees without support."
 
DIANA TONEA, MERCY CORPS MISSION LEAD IN ROMANIA
 
In Romania and Poland, Mercy Corps teams are working quickly to understand the evolving humanitarian needs. We anticipate providing emergency cash assistance as well as supporting local organizations that know their communitys’ needs best. Our team also anticipates entering Ukraine, depending on safety and access, as we expect a rapidly growing need for food supplies, infrastructure, and access to water, electricity, healthcare, and other essential services.

In times of crisis, we all search for some concrete action to help those facing the greatest need. Right now, your generous first donation to Mercy Corps is a step you can take — your support will help provide urgently needed assistance for families in Ukraine and in 40+ countries around the world.

Your compassion and commitment to Mercy Corps’ mission, together with our teams working alongside people around the world, help to power the transformation of communities from crisis to opportunity.

We will continue to keep you updated as we respond to this rapidly evolving situation. Thank you for your support.

Sincerely,

The Mercy Corps team
