To which organization helping Ukraine will the money raised go?

(103,739 posts)4. Here it is
The September 11 Foundation board has made a decision to provide humanitarian support to the women and children fleeing Ukraine as well as all refugees leaving the country.
Where possible we will provide medical aid, food, housing assistance, etc. through our Guidestar Gold Seal approved nonprofit.

I just donated; was earlier looking for a site that was helping them.
My son's best friend is from Ukraine, has been in the US for 24yrs. When asking about 3wks ago about her perspective, she said she couldn't discuss it without crying. Having relatives still here, she's probably staying in tears now.
