Ukraine and its people have suffered devastating losses from the full-scale Russian invasion that began on February 24th, 2022. The Russian military has deliberately targeted residential areas and evacuation routes, and the Ukrainian civilian death toll has been staggering. Tens of thousands of people lost their homes, belongings, and access to basic services - power, water, food, and medical care. In the regions occupied by Russian forces, rape, torture, and mass executions have become a terrible reality. The war that has been smoldering in the East of Ukraine since 2014 and has left Ukrainian Donbas an occupied territory, ruled by ruthless warlords, has now come to every Ukrainian house.

Thousands of structures, including apartment buildings, hospitals, schools, maternity wards, and churches, have been destroyed by Russian aviation and artillery. Multiple small towns have been razed to the ground, and in some large cities, 70% to 95% of buildings have been destroyed. Over 30% of Ukraine’s civilian infrastructure has been destroyed or damaged, including roads, power plants, bridges, and telecommunication towers.

The resulting humanitarian catastrophe causes unspeakable suffering to millions of Ukrainians. It also threatens the safety and peace of the world. Widespread hunger looms over African and Asian countries that used to be the primary consumers of Ukrainian wheat and other agricultural exports.

Liberty Ukraine aims to save lives on the frontlines and help Ukrainians stop the war and heal its scars. We fundraise for protective gear, transportation, and life-saving medical supplies for Ukrainian hospitals and Ukrainian Defenders. We also fund physical rehabilitation for the injured and therapy for women and children survivors to overcome the traumas of war.
