Canada-Ukraine Foundation/Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal
Art for Ukraine was a project organized by artists to sell their artwork (within a theme) and donate 100% of proceeds to the Canada-Ukraine Foundation/Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal. I wanted to see the money go to the citizens of Ukraine who really need it. I didn’t want to be funding a war/paying for an army, I wanted to provide food, medical supplies and essentials that Ukraine people need and don’t have access to right now.
It is currently closed.
Together, we raised approximately $2,480 CAD
About The Canada-Ukraine Foundation/Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal
(from their website)
The Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal was established by the Ukrainian Canadian Congress and the Canada-Ukraine Foundation.
The CUF/UCC Humanitarian Appeal has already delivered multiple tranches of aid to affected populations in all corners of Ukraine, including some of the hardest hit cities in the north, east and south of the country. Our support also extends to affected families who have made their way across the border into neighbouring countries such as Romania and Moldova, as well as providing food for internally displaced families from across Ukraine who find themselves in Lviv and surrounding areas.
To date, over $5 million CAD in aid has been delivered. Subsequent tranches of support will follow in coming days and weeks as we monitor and confirm prior deliveries of support and assess the evolving needs together with partners on the ground. We are withholding more specific information due to security concerns.
CUF has also lent its expertise in helping to coordinate the collection and delivery of various medicine and medical supply shipments for a range of community initiatives across Canada.
