Responses to the conflict by CAF’s international partners
CAF’s International Network partners
CAF is a member of several international organisations, and donors can help European charities through these network partners.
BCause, Bulgaria
CAF’s network member BCause has been supporting Ukrainian refugees arriving to Bulgaria. BCause is fundraising for the long-term support and integration of Ukrainian refugees into Bulgarian society. Working closely with volunteer groups and NGOs, the fund will offer housing and psychological support to families, language classes, educational activities for children and employment support for parents.
Transnational Giving Europe (TGE)
CAF is a member of the Transnational Giving Europe (TGE) network. The TGE network covers 19 countries and enables donors, both corporates and individuals, residing in one of the participating countries, to financially support charities in other member countries. Donors still directly benefit from the tax advantages provided for in the legislation of their country of residence.
Academy for the Development of Philanthropy in Poland
TGE Partner, the Academy for the Development of Philanthropy in Poland (ADPP), has established a Ukrainian Emergency Fund to support local Polish non-profits, particularly those operating close to the Polish – Ukraine border. This fund focuses on supporting the most urgent needs of those Ukrainian refugees arriving to Poland. To find out more, visit here.
Carpathian Foundation Hungary and Carpathian Foundation Slovakia
TGE Partners Carpathian Foundation Hungary and Carpathian Foundation Slovakia have joined forces to initiate the Slovak-Hungarian Emergency Response Fund for Ukrainians.
