Ukraine needs your help
Meet Sunflower Seeds Ukraine
Our mission to save the lives and strengthen the resolve of Ukrainian Defenders. We focus on providing medical aid and protective gear to Defenders on the front lines, as well as humanitarian assistance to affected civilians.
Our organization is 100% volunteer 501(c)(3) non-profit based in Boulder CO, which means that every donation is tax-deductible and goes directly toward defending and reducing suffering in Ukraine.
With the support of donors and volunteers, we fulfill more than 500 aid requests per month and have helped more than 12,000 Defenders and civilians so far.

Why support Ukraine?
In 1994, Ukraine relinquished its nuclear defense capabilities in exchange for security assurances from the United States, the United Kingdom, and the russian federation. In 2014, just 20 years later, russia violated this agreement when it annexed Crimea. Then, at the start of 2022, russia launched the full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
Since February 2022, russia’s brutal campaign against the people and sovereignty of Ukraine has been characterized by horrific war crimes, including the torture and killing of prisoners of war, kidnapping of children, and bombing of hospitals, apartment buildings, and essential energy infrastructure.
The need for aid is urgent, and we’re here to help.
