Like so many others around the world, we at Defenders of Wildlife are deeply saddened by the acts of war unfolding in Ukraine and our hearts go out to everyone affected by these horrific attacks.
For 75 years, we have been unwavering defenders of wildlife and wild places. We fight for the vulnerable, threatened and endangered. Our mission is wildlife, but there are many organizations whose mission is to help the people impacted by war and violence. Today we lend our voice to them.
If you’re looking to support the people of Ukraine, The Guardian published a list of organizations with high marks from Charity Navigator, which assesses groups’ efficiency, transparency and other factors.
For nearly 80 years, Defenders of Wildlife has worked to protect and restore America’s wildlife at risk of extinction, advancing a vision of a future in which wildlife thrives, sustained by broad public support and a resilient network of healthy lands and waters. With a network of more than 2 million supporters, Defenders is an advocate for innovative solutions to safeguard wildlife for generations to come.
