It’ll take some time afterwards to process the tags. The deadline was for receiving tags by simply asking.

Could I have the gangtag? The wife and I are planning on making separate donations once our paychecks post.

Also, is it ok to share the links to donate on Facebook and at work?

PM Mokotow, he did a refugee taxi lift on Polish border. From what I recall, he didn’t expect to have to wait 8 hours in the cold, and wished he had blankets, food, etcetera for that kind of situation. Also, there was hubris with some of the people he picked up getting actually shipped further onwards to where they were headed, with Mokotow having to figure out transport tickets and such.

So talk to Mokotow, and maybe give a call to your ministry of interior and Slovakian Ukrainian embassy or consulate.

Also if you end up doing this, let us know in the big thread as well. Some people will be happy to pitch in for fuel or what have you.
I just sent :10bux: to lowtaxJeffery for PM upgrade but Mokotow doesnt' have them lol.

Anyway thanks for the suggestion, I'll try to track him down in the thread somewhere.

Reposting from the other thread:

:mamacita: If you’re outside of the EU and want to help, please support the Ukraine government and Ukrainian charities directly. If you’re in the EU and particularly in EE, please think locally - Facebook is currently the best source for information and coordination of charity and emigrant housing.

Would love a gangtag if they're still being offered please.

Edit - not sure if the 'Lipstick Apathy' thing counts as a gangtag, but that would be the one to go.

I just wanna pop in and thank everyone for the links provided. Thank you everyone helping on the ground if you're local. I'm doing one of those Facebook birthday fundraiser links and these resources help.

Also, another org that popped up while looking through resources:

https://razomforukraine.org/

Normal operations:

quote:

Razom initiates short and long-term projects, or collaborates on existing projects with partner organizations, which help Ukraine stay on the path of fostering democracy and prosperity. We’ve grown a diverse community of volunteers and collaborators across the US and Ukraine which allows us to create spaces where people can meet, partner, and execute on these projects.

Current operations:

quote:

Currently our work is focused on purchasing tactical medical supplies (for critical situations like blood loss etc in the field) and medical supplies needed in hospitals. Thanks to having one of the largest and most active volunteer networks in the Ukrainian-American diaspora, we’ve been able to quickly build a procurement team that purchases life-saving supplies across the US and Europe. Additionally, thanks to our years of work with volunteers and organizations in Ukraine, we have a logistics team that’s able to transport our supplies from Warsaw, Poland to Ukraine.

Information for those who have donated to me on Friday - I’m passing on 500 USD to Larissa, who will use the money to travel to Ukraine and bring it to her son and elderly family, along with supplies (mainly food). It’s possible this amount will grow - right now they’re buying supplies to fill a van and we’ll figure it out as we go along.

I have also passed on 100 USD for a facility that’s sheltering animals from Ukraine and 50 USD on Igor the Ukrainian cat, who is being taken care of by a foundation in Rzeszów by the border whom I’ve sponsored before.

It stays open. The only thing that’s over is gang tags disbursement without a proof of donation.

People are talking about fast tracking an EU membership for Ukraine, but I have a few questions:

Didn't Ukraine get denied membership already because their state and municipal governments are corrupt as hell? Like to the degree that even the EU has trouble looking past

Also, Isn't the EU a financial cooperation? Even if Ukraine joined, that wouldn't mean military support. At best, sanctions and financial support.

My understanding is that the EU did not offer them candidate status primarily to avoid offending Russia.

They do have a mutual defense clause, which is probably why actual EU membership is a post-war thing (presuming there is still a Ukraine to grant EU status to).

I just did an unofficial count and came up with $18,005.28 USD plus a variety of unspecified (and often recurring) donations. The vast majority of funds have gone to Médecins Sans Frontières, the International Rescue Committee, or one of the many Red Cross societies around the world.
