**Support Ukraine: 5 Ways to Make a Difference**
The war in Ukraine has been ongoing for four years, and the situation is still dire. Recently, there was a public spat between US President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky that made headlines. Despite this, the international community’s support for Ukraine remains strong.
**Contact Your Representatives**
If you live in the US or anywhere else, contact your elected representatives to show your support for Ukraine. The American Coalition for Ukraine has a tool to find your members of Congress and some suggested messages to use when contacting them. You can also look for local groups organizing political support for Ukraine in your area.
**Avoid Companies Operating in Russia**
Some international companies are still operating in Russia, despite the ongoing war. The Kyiv School of Economics has made a list of these corporations. You can boycott these companies and instead support Ukrainian brands or local businesses. This way, you’ll be helping to weaken the Russian economy.
**Donate to Ukrainian Organizations**
There are many organizations working tirelessly on the ground in Ukraine to provide aid and support to those affected by the war. Some well-known charities include Come Back Alive, the Serhiy Prytula Charity Foundation, and the Hospitallers. These organizations need your donations to continue their vital work.
**Protest in Support of Ukraine**
Join marches or demonstrations in your area to show your support for Ukraine. You can find out about upcoming events by checking the Ukrainian World Congress’s map of organizers on February 24th.
