Update
Many countries have imposed sanctions against Russia and Belarus, and as a result, Russian or Belarusian nonprofit organizations have been temporarily deactivated from the Benevity Causes Portal. We are in the process of putting funds back into the accounts of those who have donated so they can redirect funds to other organizations that are able to accept donations.

Update
The situation in Ukraine has escalated quickly, and millions of Ukrainians are facing a terrible humanitarian crisis. Due to this, many countries have imposed sanctions against Russia and Belarus. To comply with these sanctions, donations cannot be made to Russian or Belarusian nonprofit organizations, and Benevity has deactivated these organizations on our platform, meaning they are not available to donate to at this time. We are in the process of putting funds back into the accounts of those who have donated so they can help by redirecting these funds to other organizations based in other countries that are able to accept donations.
