Help Us Help

Founded in 1993, Help Us Help (formerly known as Dopomoha Ukraini – Aid Ukraine) is a federally registered Canadian charitable organization, focused on humanitarian aid and educational projects in Ukraine and in Canada. In the 29 years since being founded, the organization has delivered more than $25 million dollars in charitable aid to projects and organizations engaged in the areas of humanitarian aid, education, literacy, arts and culture, social work, civil society, and more.

In response to the consequences of the 2014 Ukrainian Revolution of Dignity, Euromaidan, Help Us Help expanded its charitable initiatives to include humanitarian support to the victims of the conflict. The organization is committed to raising awareness through education in Canada and in supporting Ukraine’s democratic development as the country looks to rebuild a brighter future.

How We Help

Our cornerstone projects include Help Us Help: Children, Scholars, and Veterans.

In 2015, we were named a key partner in the “Ukraine Appeal”, a national Canadian humanitarian aid initiative launched by the Ukrainian Canadian Congress which is the organizational body for 1.2 million Canadian citizens of Ukrainian descent.
