About Us
Help Us Save Ukraine!
I Heart Ukraine is a US-based non-profit organization with the main mission of helping Ukrainian people in their fight against the Russian onslaught and help restore peace. Further, continue helping with rebuilding Ukraine’s infrastructure and livelihoods.
We are a group of volunteers mainly located in the NY and NJ area of the United States. Many of us are Ukrainian Americans who still have families and friends in Ukraine so this mission is very dear to our hearts.
We mobilized immediately when the war started. We strive to be the Western supply partner to many on-the-ground efforts in Ukraine. We realize that the need is enormous and we are doing our part, as do millions of people outside of Ukraine.
How you can help
Donate & Invite Others
We raise funds and donations based on the current needs of the Ukrainians. We monitor and gauge the needs in our daily conversations with people on the ground in many regions of Ukraine – doctors, territorial defense members, volunteers. We meet their needs by getting the right equipment and supplies efficiently and quickly.
Today’s greatest needs are:
- Equipment:
Tactical Personal Protective Equipment for emergency volunteers, drivers, Ukrainian territorial defense members, and medical personnel. Where do we get it?
Anywhere we can really, but specifically at military supply surplus stores; we ask police departments for overstock items to donate; we raise funds and buy them online and find secure and fast ways to ship them. We document each step so that every item is accounted for and gets into the right hands.Examples
Kevlar bulletproof helmets, bulletproof vests (level IV), ballistic eyewear, kneepads and elbow pads, etc. - Supplies:
Medical Tactical Kits:Blood stopping items like tourniquets and celox cloth or powder, pain killer & anti inflammatory medication, bandages, antibacterial medications and more.
With a large number of injuries in both front-line defenders as well as civilian population, medical supplies are needed in large numbers, in a variety of categories.
- Electronic Supplies:
Everyday items such as tablets, phones, power banks, flashlights, consumer drones, night vision goggles, long range walkie-talkies, etc. - Clothing:
Our front-liners and volunteers who are constantly on the move always require fresh sets of personal hygiene and clothing items like dark color t-shirts, underwear and socks, tactical pants and jackets, tactical backpacks, combat boots etc. - Other ways to help:
Reach out together with us to political leaders from our local mayors’ offices to the White House. Each voice matters!We are helping other organizations like Razom for Ukraine and USA Stands With Ukraine in collecting and shipping humanitarian aid to those who most need it there right now.
