Donating to UUSC’s Emergency Response Fund ensures UUSC is always ready to provide relief, including their developing work to protect the rights of refugees fleeing Ukraine.
In response to the Ukrainian refugee crisis, UUSC’s first step is to send emergency relief funding to groups who are working on the ground in Eastern Europe. This will happen quickly as UUSC has existing partners in the area from their Syrian Refugee work. This includes partners such as the Hungarian Helsinki Committee who are already responding to the current crisis by providing free legal assistance, counseling, and representation so that Ukrainian asylum seekers receive temporary protection immediately. Following the relief grants, UUSC’s team will develop a strategy for longer-term recovery alongside these same partners.
