Aiding Ukraine and Ukrainians

A few days ago, I received confirmation: the check I sent months ago to an account of the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense at a bank in Kyiv finally got deposited, and debited from my account. Given all the time it took, I’m not sure that I should appeal to others to do likewise.

If anyone wants to help refugees, Ukrainian and otherwise, organizations like Doctors Without Borders and the International Rescue Committee are involved in that work, and accepting donations. Donations can also be sent to Razom, which means “Together” in Ukrainian. I have mailed them a check; you can also make donations by credit card at their website.

If you have business before the Patent Office, or are a fellow federal employee, or if it would otherwise be improper for me to solicit you to make any donations, this post does not apply to you.
