Frequently Asked Questions


Where can I donate?

For financial donations please use donate options on our site.

To amplify your impact, please consider asking your organization to match your donation. Many organizations are doubling their employee-matching contributions 2:1 to support Ukraine’s urgent needs.

When setting up matching contributions, please search for the Ukrainian American Home in Minneapolis or Ukrainian American Community Center.

If you prefer donating by check, please send it directly to the Ukrainian American Community Center (UACC), 301 Main Street, NE, Mpls, MN 55413.

Donations are 100% secure and tax-deductible. UACC is a 501(c)3 registered non-profit organization (EIN 411408539). All donors will be sent a letter acknowledging their donation that can be used as receipt for tax filing purposes.

Ask your family and friends to contribute as well.

What goods are most urgently needed in Ukraine?

Medical Aid is the most pressing assistance needed today. Medical aid is urgently required by Ukrainian civilians, first responders and the defenders of Ukraine. No Ukrainian is safe from the effects of Russia’s war.

Our team prioritizes any in-kind medical donations and use our extensive network to quickly deliver them to people in need throughout Ukraine.

Please check this list provided by the Ukrainian Ministry of Health for the most urgently needed medical supplies right now. If you have them at your disposal or know someone who can donate large quantities of such supplies, please contact our medical aid coordinator.

Where can I bring donated goods?

Donated goods according to above list are being accepted locally at St Katherine Orthodox Church (1600 County Hwy 96, Arden Hills, MN 55112) from 5 pm to 7 pm on Wednesdays and on Sundays from 9:30 am to 12:30 pm.
