Millions of refugees from Ukraine have been forced to flee their homes. Ukraine's refugee crisis is turning into one of the biggest humanitarian crises of our time. Your donation to this fund will support refugees from Ukraine through three organizations.
Challenge
More than two million people have now fled Ukraine. About half of those have entered Poland, while the rest have mostly gone to Moldova, Hungary, Romania, and Slovakia. This number is estimated to grow to over seven million during the coming weeks and months. The UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) has called it the fastest-growing refugee crisis in Europe since World War Two.
Our efforts at TPF aim to enrich and inspire our communities and make each of us feel that we are part of something that is greater than ourselves. Once again that is what Turkish Philanthropy Funds aspires to do with this humanitarian crisis: Give our community the opportunity to lift up those in need.
Solution
All donations to TPF Ukraine Refugees Fund will support humanitarian assistance to refugees from Ukraine. Local organizations are bringing relief to terrified and displaced communities, and they need resources to continue their life-saving work.
How Your Donation will be used?
Your donation to the Ukraine Refugees Fund will provide shelter, food, and clean water for refugees; and health and psychosocial support through the following organizations:
1. Ukrainian National Women’s League of America in NYC. The organization's Emergency Response Team is engaged in in providing medical and humanitarian aid support, especially to women and children, fleeing the war. Their Immigration and Visa team is helping refugees with questions regarding immigration.
2. International Rescue Committee. The organization recently launched operations in Poland and scaling up resources and mobilizing partners in both Poland and Ukraine to assist people who had to flee their homes.
3. Federation of Community Foundations in Poland. This national community foundation supports (1) Refugees that have already gone to Poland and are in need of shelter, medical, and any other kind of support; and (2) People who are waiting in very long lines at the border (mostly women with their children) with hot tea, food, blankets, and other needs.
