Mother for Ukraine
Our Mission is one of direct action. We are delivering Humanitarian Aid to the people of Ukraine and bringing refugees to safe locations. We are also developing relationships to help achieve this goal. Supporting children is primary to our mission: Orphanages, Centers for Children, Activities for Children.
Make a Tax Deductible Donation
Regardless of your feelings about the war in Ukraine, civilians including children are in dire need of help. Our focus is on providing Humanitarian Aid to civilians; they all need some help but especially the children. We are a small group who are donating our time so all of your donations will go directly to helping the people of Ukraine.
Some of the things we do
Ukrainians are an industrious and proud people. They take great pride in what they have built in their country. But they are currently in a time of great need, so we are doing what we can. Any donation you make will help.
