Story

Russia's attack on Ukraine has led to major civilian harm and massive displacement. The conflict has the potential to be the largest military action in Europe since WWII. U.S. intelligence projects up to 50,000 people could be killed or wounded. Further violence will devastate Ukraine's already weakened infrastructure. The country's health system is fragile, and its economy has declined drastically. Food and fuel shortages are likely to be acute, and public services rendered non-functioning.

Impact

The conflict may result in humanitarian suffering on a scale beyond what Europe has seen this century. It has weakened Ukraine's infrastructure and sent the country's economy into drastic decline. The war will strain the resources of Ukraine's neighbors, and it will impact supplies of Ukrainian-grown wheat and other food staples for countries like Yemen, Libya and Lebanon that are already facing acute levels of food insecurity. The world must prepare for the worst and provide critical relief.

Challenge

More than 10 million people have been uprooted from their homes in Ukraine and are need of humanitarian assistance, in what has become the largest and fastest displacement crisis since World War II. Of these, over 6 million have fled to neighboring countries as refugees. A further 12 million people are estimated to be stranded or are unable to leave Ukraine due to increasing violence. Please give what you can to help the people of Ukraine.
