Thank you very much for providing the links to donate!!!

Here are some additional opportunities: (Courtesy of Jonathan V. Last)

. General humanitarian aid to Ukrainians can be arranged by Razom, which can take a credit card and give you a tax deductions. They are a flexible group of volunteers and will cooperate with other partners in the US and in Poland and Ukraine. Donate to Razom here.

2. A European group with a good reputation and a good partner in Ukraine (Vostok SOS) is Liberico. You can easily donate to Liberico by credit card. Mark "Ukraine" as the purpose of your donation.

3. In Poland the flood of refugees must be handled by countless small organizations. One of the very best is the Borderland Foundation, whose mission for decades has been cross-border cultural understanding. These are people I know well and trust. They have mobilized to take Ukrainian refugees and to build a network across Poland. You cannot donate to them with a card, but you can donate in dollars using their bank account. This is the information you need:

IBAN: PL53124058911787001042509362; SWIFT: PKOPPLPW; Bank PKO SA SUWAŁKI. The beneficiary is Fundacja Pogranicze.

4. The largest charity in Poland is Caritas, a branch of the larger Catholic organization under the same name. It is acting to support refugees on a large scale. Again, you would need to make a bank transfer, but it is not difficult. You just go online with your bank.
