What it does

Helping those who need it most - Directly. The 1k Project uses personal networks to directly match a family impacted by the pandemic with a family committed to giving them $1k for 3 months.

The $1K Project for Ukraine connects sponsors directly with Ukrainian families impacted by the war. $11.5M+ raised, 11,000+ families and 40,000+ children helped.

💛 💛 💛 More than $11.5M funds committed. More than 11,000 families and more than 40,000 children helped. 💙 💙 💙 Більш ніж $11.5 мільйонів доларів виділені. Більш ніж 11 000 сімей і більш ніж 40 000 дітей отримали допомогу. Ми вже опрацьовуємо велику чергу родин і не хочемо обіцяти допомогу, доки не зможемо належно розглянути кожне звернення. Дякуємо за розуміння. Будь ласка, перевірте цю сторінку пізніше — ми відновимо прийом, щойно матимемо таку можливість. The $1K Project Ukraine is a not for profit collective focused on directly connecting sponsors in USA and around the world to help Ukrainian families impacted by the senseless and inhumane war.
