Razom for Ukraine supports the people of Ukraine since the Ukrainian Revolution of Dignity in 2013, including the 2014 invasion of Ukraine, and now the wider 2022 invasion of Ukraine. Their mission is to foster Ukrainian democracy and civil society through a global network of experts and organizations supporting democracy activists and human rights advocates throughout Ukraine. During the recent invasion, they have among other actions provided medical supplies to manage blood loss, tactical medicine, and other live-saving items to civilians and medical teams, and they have a large procurement team that tracks and purchases supplies to get them to Ukraine.

Impact Delivered
Traceable impact made by Razom for Ukraine includes:
- January 2023 => Majority of the work done focused on medical equipment. Using donations/grants, they supplied 11 generators to Ukrainian Hospitals (these will ensure that even during power outages doctors can continue providing emergency care and will be able to save the lives of many civilians). They plan to get 10 more. First three generators are already on their way from our warehouse in Kyiv to hospitals in Kryvyi Rih, Marganets, and Tomakivka in the Dnipropetrovsk region of eastern Ukraine. They also supplied scrubs for the medics. Link: https://www.razomforukraine.org/january-updates-from-razom-health/
