Gazeta Wyborcza Foundation media support

In light of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and spreading disinformation, the Polish-based Gazeta Wyborcza Foundation and its partners have decided to establish a Fund for Ukraine to support journalists and publishers directly in war zones.

Keep Ukraine media going 

Ukraine is facing an unprecedented, full-scale war. Media across the country continue to operate under the most challenging circumstances. They have shown extraordinary courage, but the reality on the ground is that most operations cannot continue from Ukraine alone. This fundraiser is aimed at helping media relocate, set-up back offices and continue their operations from neighboring countries. Ways to support media activities in Ukraine (e.g., purchases of security equipment, paying drivers, medical care) are outlined below. This campaign is run by a consortium of The Fix , Are We Europe,  Jnomics and Media Development Foundation as well as multiple media partners from across Europe. We are working with a growing list of Ukrainian media, including Ukrainska Pravda, Zaborona, Detector Media and others. Support is allocated based on urgency of needs in the first place, then distributed proportionally.

• If you want to provide support to fund media operations in Ukraine, please reach out to Stichting Are We Europe Foundation.

• If you want to provide funds to individual media directly, contact us and we will provide a list with their details.

• We are running a separate fundraiser for the Kyiv Independent - if you can support them, please do so.

• If you are representing other independent media covering the war, want to be a part of the campaign and receive financial or any other help, please send a short description of your media and the list of urgent needs using the contact button on our fundraiser page  (bear in mind immediate support on the ground is extremely difficult to provide).

• If you want to support local and regional media, which are covering the war in other parts of the country, you can also reach out directly to Media Development Foundation: https://www.facebook.com/mdfoundationUA

 

Ukrainska Pravda ("Ukrainian Truth")

No one in Ukraine knows the days of the week from Monday anymore, everyone is counting the days since the beginning of the war. And everyone who considers oneself a Ukrainian - in their own land or abroad, endeavors to bring the time of our victory closer. Everyone fights for the state as they can. The editorial board of Ukrainska Pravda ("Ukrainian Truth") does what it does best - it searches, checks and publishes information. And this work objectively helps to change life and influence the course of events. 

 

Kyiv Independent

Ukraine is facing an unprecedented attack. The Kyiv Independent continues to work, bringing the world trusted, important information about the facts on the ground. We need your support in this difficult and unpredictable task. From cyberattacks, bombings, ground invasions - it is hard to predict what the days ahead will bring and what we will need to respond.

AltexSoft in Kharkiv

A high-end IT company in Ukraine, AltexSoft is providing humanitarian aid to its staff and communities it serves. Says CEO Oleksandr Medovoi, "We understand that we must continue our humanitarian aid to communities most hit by the conflict, primarily Kharkiv. That is why we have created gofundme and givesendgo campaigns in support of our efforts. Many have asked how you can help Ukraine in these times of crisis. Now we have another option for you, if you can, please donate to our cause. We organize these relief efforts through our partner charity New Life Atlanta that has 503(c) status, and the money will be managed by AltexSoft team in partnership with Kharkiv IT Cluster. The donation will be tax deductible. The money will go to further evacuations from the zones of active conflict, as well as the provision of food, water, medicine and shelter to those still staying in Kharkiv.  You may also write a check to New Life Church with the address 3150 Old Atlanta Road, Suwannee, GA 30024; on the memo, please write "Kharkiv," and it will come directly to the fund that we are going to manage."
