Ukraine SOS - Military & Humanitarian Aid info!

[DownNative]

If the West and NATO won't commit our armies to the defence of Ukraine, our money can help the Ukrainian Army!

You can donate straight to the Ukrainian National Bank using the account details in this link:

ukraine.ua/news/donate-to-the-nbu-fund/

The bank will enable the Ukrainian Army to buy food, weapons, various equipment, etc, for their soldiers.

These organisations will also help the army financially if you donate:

My daughter felt so strongly on Wednesday night about sending aid boxes, so I researched it.

Where we are, humanitarian aid groups have more than enough food, so don't need any more.

This is usually what is urgently required:

Complete First Aid kits

Or individual first aid materials such as:

Sterile gauze, bandages, dressings, plasters, thermal blankets, tubular bandages, saline ampoules, disinfectant, disposable gloves, tourniquets, scissors, etc.

Shampoo
Soap
Shower gel
Toothbrush
Toothpaste
Feminine hygiene products
Nappies
Baby wipes
Washing up liquid
Washing powder

New blankets & sleeping bags

Disposable cutlery, plates and bowls

Thanks for this - it’s useful.

I thought the strong message is now ‘money, not stuff’.

very very clear its just money thats required

they dont need stuff theres too much been sent

these people are displaced and can't carry a new wardrobe of clothing around no matter how well meaning

Material Assistance to the Army

Tactical medicine

1. Turnstile CAT or SOF

1. Hemostatic (means to stop bleeding in the form of a bandage) QuikClot Combat Gauze Z-Folded,

Celox Gauze.

1. Israeli bandage size 4 ”or 6”

1. Nasopharyngeal tube. Exactly your size.

1. Lubricant. Without it to enter a tube it is much more difficult and painful.

1. Occlusive bandage of HALO. For chest injuries. The set usually has two bandages -

on the inlet and outlet openings. Also come with a valve. This is important if the fighter develops a severe pneumothorax.

1. Decompression needle. To solve the problem of intense pneumothorax.

1. Individual set of tablets, which is taken immediately after injury and washed down

with water. The most correct option: put them in a separate zip bag or plastic cone. Ingredients: anti-inflammatory, antibiotic, analgesic. Dosages are as large as possible to act reliably and quickly. If desired, you can analogs. Diclofenac sodium 75 mg. Paracetamol 500 mg. Ceftriaxone 500 mg.

1. Anti-burn hydrogel bandage. For example - BurnTec.

10. Rubber disposable medical gloves.

11. Tactical scissors. For example: North American Rescue. It is also better not to save on scissors, as cheap analogues will not cut clothes quickly.

12. Hypoallergenic plaster on a non-woven basis. From such material it is simple to tear off a piece with hands the right size. The woven base can only be cut.

13. Permanent black marker. To make records of the time of application of the turnstile, the drugs administered and fill out the inspection card.

14. Summary for the first aid kit. The main thing is to be comfortable and waterproof.

There's zero clothing in ours and we followed the list from our local Polish drop off. They actually told us a few minutes ago they urgently require sleeping bags.

Different organisations have different requirements.

In any case, there are links provided to donate money to the Ukrainian Army.

It's not only humanitarian aid items that's required.

@Itsnotover

Thanks for this - it’s useful.

No problem! Although I've provided a list straight from the Ukrainian authorities of military equipment they require, I'll be donating money to their national bank which is for the Ukrainian Army.

we are sending money....had a family collection

I know the OP said that she had a list of specific requirements, but in general it's much better to send money:

Remember, the Ukrainian Army requires financial donations in order to buy food, ammunition, equipment, etc, for their soldiers.

The humanitarian aid is one aspect of the situation there, but the Army urgently require money.

Tried to donate but it just buffers all the time and doesn't load.

It's administered by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine, so is official.
