We are a coordinating alliance of civil-social organizations, foundations, governmental institutions, and private businesses. Together, our aim is to create a network of coordinated solutions for displaced people and refugees. Our current network mainly focuses on organizations that operate in or are based in Germany with some exceptions.
About Alliance4Ukraine
The assault on Ukraine is sending shockwaves across Europe and the entire world. Millions of people are affected by the war and its consequences. While millions of people are being impacted and require immediate help, many businesses and organizations want to contribute their time, skills, and resources. We join forces to quickly and efficiently match qualified needs with individuals and organizations who wish to help and meet those needs.
The Alliance4Ukraine is under the shared patronage of the German Federal Minister of the Interior and Communication, Nancy Faeser, and the Minister of State to the Federal Chancellor and Federal Government Commissioner for Migration, Refugees and Integration, Reem Alabali-Radovan.
Alliance4Ukraine Fund
The Alliance4Ukraine Fund allocates financial resources donated by foundations, businesses, and individuals to meet the financial needs of acutely-strained refugee organizations in a quick and flexible manner.
Many refugee organizations need to expand vastly their capacities. Thus, they need financial resources as quickly as possible in order to meet increasing demand. The Alliance4Ukraine Fund is designed to provide these organizations—and already established initiatives—with initial financing or bridge and interim financing.
These organizations depend on donations to facilitate aid that is urgently needed now. Every contribution helps! We thank all organizations and individuals who support the Alliance4Ukraine Fund.

How are resources distributed?
We connect financial resources and volunteer time to heavily-strained organizations.
We will—whenever possible—steer resources toward existing organizations whose solutions are needed now and in the coming months. For this, we facilitate customized time resources of all supporting patrons and distribute the Alliance4Ukraine Fund for initial financing.
Granting of funds
The ProjectTogether team evaluates financial requests and makes recommendations to the Alliance4Ukraine Advisory Council. The Advisory Council consists of donors as well as experts. The Alliance4Ukraine Advisory Council meets regularly via videoconference and makes the final decisions concerning the distribution of funds.
What is the Alliance4Ukraine NOT doing?
We want to avoid redundant structures of support. Therefore, we deliberately do not support the launch of new initiatives, but rather focus on existing and established organizations.
We are not organizing escape routes. Numerous organizations and networks already exist that do this.
We neither connect individual volunteers nor do we coordinate their support, but rather focus on supporting the efforts of organizations, foundations, and businesses.
