Provide Relief for People and Pets in War-Torn Ukraine

Villages all across the frontlines of the war in Ukraine have been ravaged by over four years of continuous fighting, regular artillery exchanges, airstrikes, and ground offensives that have desecrated the landscape and made survival a daily struggle. Frequently cut off from outside support and in constant danger, families have been force to survive in ravaged homes — often with no power and broken windows — with unpredictable access to food and supplies.

That’s why our partner, Greater Good Charities, is on the ground delivering badly needed aid. To date, they've distributed over 12 million humanitarian meals to families in Ukraine, provided more than 38.2 million meals to pets, delivered over 47,500 warm blankets, and installed more than 7,600 temporary windows.

Just $50 provides a winter relief kit containing a wool blanket and enough nutritious, shelf-stable food to support one person’s nutritional needs for an entire month. The kits also include enough pet food to feed two pets for a month.

Donate today to help the people and pets of Ukraine in the midst of uncertainty. 

Updates from the Field

Care Packs and Blankets: Over four full years of war, Greater Good Charities has remained positioned and committed to fill critical gaps in aid in villages where no other support is arriving. Whether providing food to people remaining near the front lines, replacing windows blown out by explosions near houses and hospitals, feeding and housing pets displaced as communities that are destroyed the generosity of donors like you makes this work possible for those who need it most.

Relief Kits for People and Pets: Greater Good Charities continues to work with implementing partners to distribute relief kits and blankets to Ukrainians, many of whom are in dangerous areas not always reached by aid workers. One partner said, "Some have received nothing because of their proximity to the conflict zones. These items are greatly appreciated!"

On December 10, more than 2,000 blankets were delivered to the partner's local warehouse. Three days prior, they'd delivered all the remaining hygiene kits they had on hand. They said, in all, more than 5,500 people were helped by the latest batch of kit and blanket distributions.

Blankets and Relief Kits:  Greater Good Charities worked with a partner to distribute more than 1,500 relief kits, along with nearly 3,300 blankets, to Ukrainian families near the frontlines and in contested areas of the Mykolaiv and Kherson regions, where residents are feeling the full weight of the war. Ongoing blackouts meant demand was especially high, leading to families getting two blankets rather than just one to help meet their needs.

Relief Kit Distribution:  Greater Good Charities has been working with the organization DTCare to distribute hygiene kits throughout areas in need across Ukraine. DTCare recently handed these necessities out to residents in Zorya, Partyzanske, and Blahodatne, as well as humanitarian hubs in Kherson, where they say they had a close call with Russian drones. One of these hubs was targeted soon after they left. 

As of their latest update, DTCare was still working to distribute 140 kits, but 582 had already been delivered.
