The Ukrainian government's official platform for donations.
The idea is simple:
to unite the world around supporting Ukraine; to protect, save and rebuild
The platform allows one-click donations to Ukraine from anywhere. Why is this so important? Because Ukraine itself knows best what is needed and can deliver aid directly.
No one was ready for a full-scale war in the heart of Europe. Charitable foundations, no matter how well-organized, cannot meet the needs of a country as large as Ukraine. We can, however, do it together.
UNITED24 is designed for collaboration with charities, partners, donors, and public figures worldwide.

A new campaign (August 2024) to clear mines in Ukraine.
As a result of the Russian invasion, almost a quarter of Ukraine's government-controlled territory (139,300 square kilometers) is contaminated with explosive ordnance. It will take at least 10 years to clear it. UNITED24 Ambassadors, Timothy Snyder and Mark Hamill, are joining forces to raise funds for demining robots to help clear Ukrainian land.
A British – Ukrainian charity which began by helping refugees in 2022 and now works to support communities in Kharkiv Oblast, one of the worst hit regions of Ukraine. Much of the region was under occupation until September 2022. In November 2022, six weeks after the liberation of the region, KHARPP Repairs was launched, working to rebuild homes, hospitals, schools, and community centres in formerly occupied and frontline villages.
As well as this rebuilding work, KHARPP also provides generators, portable power stations, and Starlink satellite internet systems to villages which remain off-grid. They pride themselves on longterm support, making regular fuel runs to the villages that they work in.
