Your gift will help us meet the critical needs of Ukrainians
All donations will be used for acquiring and supplying humanitarian aid. Our organization has been providing aid to Ukrainians since 2014, when the Russian Federation illegally annexed Crimea and starting invading eastern regions of Ukraine.
We stand by Ukraine now and in the future.
Plast USA is running two concurrent fundraisers:
– A scholarship for Plast scouts at the Ukrainian Catholic University
– A campaign to fund summer camps for refugee scouts
