UPDATE: Watch the interview with myself & my aunt Olena in Kyiv for more information & background: KTVZ Interview with myself & my aunt
Hello,
Hello,
My name is Sasha and I am a first-generation Ukrainian-American. My parents came to the United States in 1991 as Jewish refugees, but my mom's side of the family is still in Kyiv. My grandfather & uncle are currently seeking refuge from airstrikes in an underground parking structure.
The main update we are getting from them is that they lack basic resources. I am organizing donations directly to my family and their community, as well as to the Polish border for refugees who have managed to evacuate their homes.
As of right now, the airspace in Ukraine is closed which makes it very difficult to ensure shipment of oversees items will be delivered into Ukraine. For this reason, all funds raised will be going directly to family in Austria who is working with an organization who is bringing purchased relief items directly into Kyiv.
Should you have any concerns about the security of your donations, please contact me directly at [email redacted]. I will happily provide receipts of transfers as well as photos of my family receiving your items!

Your donation will go towards necessities such as:
- warm clothing
- blankets
- non-perishable foods
- over the counter medications
- toiletries,
- spending money for those without access to cash
- expedited international shipping costs.
Anything and everything matters: even if you can only help with a small $5 donation.
Thank you to those who have stood up to support my family's country during this indescribable time. I continue to send your warm wishes and prayers to my family.
Will continue to provide updates as they come.
Thank you & bless you <3
