Stand with Ukraine through Film exists to raise funds to
assist Ukrainians in and near Ukraine who are suffering as a result of
the Russian invasion of their homeland.
To simplify the flow of funds from ticket buyers and others, the project team created the Ukraine Relief Fund under the fiscal sponsorship of Human & Civil Rights Organizations of America, Inc. (HCROA). HCROA was established in 1994 and has been an integral part of the US government’s Combined Federal Campaign,
the leading workplace fundraising program in the country. HCROA
handles millions of dollars annually, donated by individuals and
transferred to benefiting charities. It undergoes annual financial
audits.
HCROA is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization. Donations are deductible to the extent allowed by law.
Donations – whether from ticket sales or private gifts – will go to
international humanitarian organizations. Among those expected to
receive the bulk of the donations will be World Central Kitchen and the
International Organization on Migration. A number of smaller tax-exempt
groups will also receive support, reflecting the recommendations of
Ukrainians.
