The largest refugee crisis since World War II continues as Ukraine marks the one-year anniversary of the Russian invasion on February 24th.

In the past year, eight million people fled to other parts of Europe, while another eight million were displaced within Ukraine. Most of those people have not returned home, with women and children making up 90% of refugees. As the conflict continues, millions of people are facing an uncertain future, worsening food insecurity and lack of medical care. 

To help renew support for the people of Ukraine whose need is as great as ever, we have put together a list of vetted nonprofits continuing to provide humanitarian aid and assistance.
