Привіт
This is Ukraina SOS, a newsletter about ways to help and what to read/write/watch/follow etc. in light of Russia's invasion of Ukraine. I’m a Ukrainian specialist, and I started sending this out to friends and family after the invasion started. I am putting it up online with the idea that more people may find it useful.
With this newsletter, I try to highlight ways to help Ukraine that go beyond donating to the big main charities (though they also of course need support). The invasion has upended all parts of Ukrainian society. I try to use my knowledge of Ukraine to connect you with people and organizations that need help now — not in three months or six months when they get a grant.
I also share links to resources that I have found particularly notable, thought-provoking, or masterful in their treatment of the invasion or Ukrainian politics, culture, and history. However, inclusion in the newsletter ≠ full endorsement.
Thanks for reading.
