Emergency Humanitarian Response Initiative
IN FEBRUARY 2022, THE ORGANIZATION RESPONDED IMMEDIATELY TO THE FULL-SCALE INVASION OF UKRAINE WITH LARGE-SCALE EFFORTS TO PROVIDE DISASTER RELIEF AND HUMANITARIAN AID. THE MAJORITY OF FUNDS RAISED DURING 2022, APPROXIMATELY $60 MILLION, WERE DEPLOYED TO PROVIDE HUMANITARIAN AID AND TO AMPLIFY VOICES OF UKRAINIANS IMPACTED BY THE WAR VIA AN EMERGENCY RESPONSE EFFORT ON THE GROUND. THE MAIN ACTIVITIES INCLUDED THE PROCUREMENT OF AID, SUCH AS TACTICAL MEDICINE, MEDICAL EQUIPMENT AND OTHER EMERGENCY SUPPLIES.THREE FACTORS HAD A DIRECT EFFECT ON THE UNPRECEDENTED CONDITIONS IN WHICH THE ORGANIZATION OPERATED IN 2022. FIRST, THE MAGNITUDE OF THE FULL-SCALE INVASION OF UKRAINE BY RUSSIA CAME ON WITH AN UNEXPECTED DEGREE OF BRUTALITY AS RUSSIAN TROOPS SWARMED ACROSS THE BORDERS AND CAUSED A LARGE-SCALE HUMANITARIAN CRISIS. SECOND, THE GENEROSITY OF DONORS WHO DISCOVERED RAZOM AND WHO CONTRIBUTED FUNDS AND IN-KIND DONATIONS CAUSED AN EXPONENTIAL RISE IN THE CONTRIBUTED FUNDS AND IN-KIND DONATIONS.
