Ways to support Ukraine 🇺🇦

More than 500,000 people have already left Ukraine due to the invasion by the Russian Federation. The European Commissioner for Humanitarian Aid and Crisis Management estimates that roughly 18 million Ukrainians will be affected by the conflict in humanitarian terms, with 7 million internally displaced and 4 million seeking refuge elsewhere. To help those still in Ukraine, as well as Ukrainian refugees, we’ve compiled this list of resources.

HelpUkraineWin.org has a collection of vetted and trusted resources, charities, and organizations to help Ukraine.

Some additional ways to donate:

• Vostok SOS provides immediate evacuation support.
• Malteser International provides essentials for Ukrainian refugees.
• Ukraine Crisis Media Center provides fundraising links and a list of tips for sharing information.

Misinformation spreads fast on social media. It is more important than ever to share accurate, verifiable news and information. Here are some resources to learn how to identify misinformation:

• This video from the nonprofit WITNESS shares tips for identifying authentic sources (available in English, Spanish, Ukranian, Russian, and Arabic).
• These visual verification tips, also from WITNESS, provide information on verifying images and videos (available in English and Spanish).
• This interview with NPR contains tips for identifying fake TikToks.

Potatoes are neat, right? You know what else is neat? Expanding video upload limits. So we went ahead and did that.

Here are the deets:

• Videos posted per day: 10 → 20
• Video upload size limit: 100MB → 500MB
• Single Video time limit: 5 minutes → 10 minutes
• Total Video time limit per day: 5 minutes → 60 minutes

Now you can watch all nine minutes and thirty-five seconds of a potato cooking in a microwave. Because that’s how long it takes.
