Blue / Yellow’s Support to Ukraine
The main focus of the organization is humanitarian aid for the people of Ukraine, equipping soldiers and volunteers with life-saving and other non-lethal supplies.
Blue/Yellow began its activities in 2014, following the annexation of Crimea. From that moment, it started raising support for Ukraine, building connections, creating a support network and infrastructure. Eight years of experience allowed the organization to react instantly when Russia launched its full-scale invasion on February 24, 2022: while others were still gathering information, Blue/Yellow was already delivering targeted aid to the soldiers fighting for Ukraine’s freedom and helping repel the attack.
Many people in Lithuania and abroad who want to help Ukraine choose to donate to Blue/Yellow, knowing the organization ensures that urgent and effective aid reaches Ukraine. This has also been recognized internationally – in 2022, Forbes ranked Blue/Yellow among the top ten organizations worldwide supporting Ukraine.
