As the events unfold in Ukraine, it can be heartbreaking to see innocent children and their families caught up in the conflict. Children in Ukraine have already been suffering through eight years of conflict – but now, all are in grave danger of physical harm and severe emotional distress.
We have teams experienced in providing rapid emergency response aid and and support on the ground in countries affected by the extreme conflict, which is why we are one of the best charities to donate to Ukraine. You can find information below on how you can support the work of our teams in responding to children’s needs by donating to Ukraine through our Ukraine Crisis Appeal.
We have been helping children and championing children’s rights for survival, protection, development and participation for over 100 years. We provide emergency response aid to children and their families affected by crises and run programs globally with a focus on protecting children and giving them the best start in life. If you want to do your part and help, here is why we are the best charity to donate to Ukraine and how you can donate to the Ukraine crisis.
