Want to help Ukrainian refugees as well as civilians staying put in the war-torn nation during the Russian invasion? An old friend of mine from Ukraine just passed along this list of links to humanitarian aid organizations either operating there or directly connected to organizations that are. Naturally, I am unable to verify all of them personally, but some of them like the Red Cross and UNICEF are well known to Americans; so look them over and donate to whichever fund passes your personal smell test:
