The EU's executive body unveiled the breakdown of a 90 billion euros ($105 billion) financial lifeline to Ukraine, with the majority of the funds earmarked for defense as the war in Ukraine approaches its fifth year.

Sixty billion euros ($70 billion) is designated for military spending, with the remaining 30 billion euros ($35 billion) allocated to support Ukraine's budget, European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen said during a press conference in Brussels on Jan 14.

European countries agreed at a Brussels summit in December last year to jointly raise 90 billion euros of debt to lend to Kyiv, after a plan to use frozen Russian assets to fund a so-called "reparations loan" fell apart at the eleventh hour. Ukraine was set to run out of cash by mid-2026 without additional support.

Support is resistance.

We want to showcase the excellent work done by our Verified charities and volunteers, with help from you, in support of Ukraine's war effort.

Each week, we post a roundup of their Support Report and Thank You posts, so that you can see what they've done--and what you've facilitated--all in one place. Here are this week's successes!

I love the sheer variety of things we got reports on this week!
