Organizations providing humanitarian assistance.
The Ukrainian Cultural and Humanitarian Institute (UCHI) in conjunction with the Ukrainian Technological Society of Pittsburgh and Fourth Wave, Pittsburgh Branch compiled this list of organizations which are providing aid to Ukraine during this time of foreign invasion. Each of the organizations listed below is collecting funds to assist Ukrainians with the first four having networks to provide this help and the last two acting as conduits. Each has been fully vetted and is a secure and trusted organization with which our western Pennsylvania Ukrainian-American churches and organizations have long-standing relationships. Each has the status of an accredited non-profit organization registered with the IRS.
This list will be revised in days to come with potential additions as the vetting process allows.
