Here is an article and some links to help LGBTQI Ukrainians. I have not researched or verified any of this information and have not yet made a decision about which of these organizations i will support. You might want to do your own due diligence before making any donations.

Have sent to one of these and may actually send to others, as well as other groups. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI have only a little to give, and with food & energy expenses going up so fast, I sure don't want my contribution to be wasted or misdirected. I've already been poring over various charity sites. USA-UNHCR sounded pretty good - BUT - it seems they spend a third of their income paying for "fundraising," and their CEO gets $300K/yr. salary.
ReplyDeleteI'm also wary of sending money to overseas charities, where the laws and regulations might not be very strict - how would I know?
I've been looking at Charity Navigator (google it) and a blog called Paddock Post (https://paddockpost.com/2017/04/06/where-does-100-to-usa-for-unhcr-go/). I encourage others to do so before sending their money off.
I hate being in this quandary when so many people need so much - but what to do?
The silver lining of what's happening right now. Seeing the rest of the world unite and help out in anyway we can.
