IRC teams are on the ground in neighboring Poland working with local partners in both Poland and Ukraine to quickly mobilize resources to provide lifesaving support and basic needs to people forced to flee their homes. |
With such a dynamic situation, we are monitoring how the needs of the refugees and those supporting them evolve over time.
We've earmarked an additional $400,000 for longer-term aid, for a total of $1 million of humanitarian aid.
Financial support is one tangible way we show our commitment to recognizing the dignity of every person and protecting human rights around the world.
We want to be a force for good in the world and will stand up for human rights always.
Please keep the people of Ukraine as well as all those who are supporting them in your thoughts.
