Through the support of our community adding new volunteers and connections, our reach has grown to diverse aspects of the relief effort. Our address of each is centered on the approach we have had since the beginning–providing a means for those who stand with Ukraine to give directly toward the immediate needs of war victims.

PROGRAMS & PROJECTS.

URE Ukraine Volunteer Network

URE sends funding to a trusted personal contact in Ukraine works with three teams of volunteers in Odessa and Izmail to purchase and distribute medical and essential supplies to refugees.

Direct aid inside Ukraine

URE Poland Volunteer Network

URE sends funding to our grassroots volunteer network in Poland that supports refugees by providing transportation from Ukrainian cities to the border, coordinating safe places to stay, and purchasing and transporting supplies (medical, clothing, and food).

Direct aid for refugees

Medical Supply Donation Program

Life-saving surplus medical supplies are thrown out in the US everyday. Instead, we collect and ship them to our volunteer network in Poland to be distributed in refugee shelters and driven into Ukraine to hospitals treating war victims.

Meet Real-time Needs

The situation in Ukraine is complex and changes quickly. We send funds and supplies to grassroots relief efforts in Ukraine and Poland to direct aid to where it is immediately needed.

Support Our Sister City

Kopychyntsi, Ukraine, and Bozeman, MT, have been connected since before the war even began. Stand with us as we support this key refuge community.

Help Provide Food Kits in Odessa Oblast

On-The-Ground volunteers are working to provide food kits to affected individuals and IDP shelters in Odessa. The food kits feed a family of 4 for 2 weeks and cost approximately 35 USD.

Fund purchase and transportation of food kits

Help Send Donated Medical Supplies

To transport medical supply donations from Bozeman to Poland in the most efficient manner, URE volunteers book flights and travel with the supplies as excess baggage. Upon arrival in Poland, the supplies are transferred to a cargo van then driven into Ukraine. For the majority of the trips so far volunteers have personally paid for their flights. In order to increase the number of deliveries by making it more financially feasible for volunteers, we are asking donors to consider helping with the flight costs.

Transportation Costs

Fund Operating Expenses

We want to send as much aid to Ukrainian refugees as possible but we do have operating costs. We need help covering costs like shipping, collection bins, transportation, promotion materials and more.
