From local generosity to practical humanitarian help.
HelpWay collects useful donated items in California, carefully sorts and prepares them, and coordinates humanitarian shipments to people and communities in Ukraine. Financial support helps cover the real cost of packing, transportation, and shipping.

Two Ways to Help
Useful items move the mission forward. Financial support helps move the shipment.
HelpWay is built around two complementary forms of support: donated goods for humanitarian distribution and funding for the logistics required to get those goods where they are needed.
Help Fund a Shipment
Shipping humanitarian goods requires packing materials, transportation, freight, and related logistics. Financial contributions help cover those direct mission costs.
