How Americans can help Ukraine through verified donations, volunteering and sharing real personal stories. These are practical ways to begin thoughtfully, without pressure or assumptions.
Choose a cause you understand
You can support humanitarian relief, displaced families, rehabilitation or an individual. Read the mission and purpose first. Helping one person is different from donating to a national charity.
Verify before donating
Check the official website and recipient details. If tax deductions matter to you, confirm the organization’s status independently. A direct gift to a person overseas is not automatically tax-deductible.
Help without money
You might volunteer with a reputable local group, help newcomers with everyday tasks or share a carefully verified story. Ask organizations what they actually need rather than assuming.
A personal voice from Ukraine
My name is Petro. I am a Ukrainian soldier seeking support for personal medical treatment and recovery. I do not speak for everyone affected by the war. I only hope that a reader far away will recognize the person behind the headline.

Personal appeal: Petro is seeking help with his own medical treatment and rehabilitation. This is a private fundraiser, not a registered charity or an official military fundraiser. Donations are voluntary.
