pspspsps, most of Ukraine is still without power, heating, and water. various NGOs and governments are doing all they can, but volunteer groups are always the ones who can help first and most directly - especially the volunteer paramedics and military corps, who are the guys helping people in active combat zones that the NGOs can’t go into. like I realize donating to military groups sounds weird, but given the complete lack of respect the Russian military has shown for peace corridors and basic rules of war, these guys are saving a lot more lives than they are ending them.

anyway here are a few groups I like in particular:

Come Back Alive, the big dick charity of them all

Ukrainian Association of Washington state: less familiar with them but they’re hosting Ruslan Gorovyi and motherfucker that’s all you have to say to me.

Hospitallers Medical Battalion are so fucking solid. they’re volunteer paramedics, so they’re the first ones going into combat zones to help civilians. I’m a little in love, honestly.

UAnimals has a patreon if you want to help animals and pets in Ukraine

All4Ukraine has a collection of individual fundraisers, so you can literally choose what you want to put your money to. a lot of them are actually cars, which may sound weird, but do not underestimate how utterly vital cars are for evacuations, ambulances, recon, etc etc, especially as winter begins. Ukraine is fucking cold, and it’s a huge country - getting people transportation is literally lifesaving rn.

UKRAINIAN CHARITIES I TRUST

Update: added united24 site

So, I fled war and I had this post with my PayPal info coz I didn't have income apart from (not very big) humanitarian help and struggled trying to find a job. Now it's just charities post. Even a few euros or dollars can help us win and stop occupiers! I personally donate any spare money I have because I want to go home and I want my home to be undamaged and my friends -- alive.

Definitely not a full list but like, there is no point of donating to every single one. They work together anyway. However, if your Ukrainian friend sent you a link to any local charity they trust, I will be grateful if you donate there as well.

Anatoly Fedoruk says the recaptured town’s streets are littered with corpses of civilians killed by Russian forces.

Almost 300 people have been buried in a mass grave in Bucha, a commuter town outside Ukraine’s capital Kyiv, according to its mayor, after the Ukrainian army retook control of the key town from Russia.

“In Bucha, we have already buried 280 people in mass graves,” Mayor Anatoly Fedoruk told the AFP news agency by phone on Saturday. He said the heavily destroyed town’s streets are littered with corpses.

“All these people were shot, killed, in the back of the head,” Fedoruk said.

He said the victims were men and women, and that he had seen a 14-year-old boy among the dead.

The mayor also confirmed to Al Jazeera that he had seen at least 22 bodies on Bucha’s streets. He said it had not been possible to collect the bodies yet, amid fears that Russian forces had booby-trapped the corpses.

“[Fedoruk] is claiming that this has been a deliberate targeting by Russian soldiers – basically a massacre of civilians in his town,” said Al Jazeera’s Rob McBride, reporting from Lviv in western Ukraine.

Bucha has seen fierce fighting during the past few weeks and had been under Russian occupation for about a month until it was retaken this week.
