Getting Help To Where It is Needed

Grassroots Response brings together local volunteers, service groups, religious institutions, settlement & employment agencies, employers, and municipalities increasing their ability to reach and effectively offer their support.

The War Is Still Occurring. Ukrainians Are Still Fleeing.
How You Can Help

We harness local resources, knowledge, and networks to provide targeted and effective support to Ukrainian newcomers. This has allowed us to deliver aid more efficiently and at a lower cost compared to larger, more bureaucratic organizations.

Hire

Ukrainian's are struggling to find employment in Canada even though many are highly qualified.

Many have to make the choice to return to Ukraine before they become homeless

Can you hire someone with limited English or no Canadian experience?

Donate

Financial donations are needed to keep our programs running. We are not funded by the Federal or Provincial government.
Household donations are being accepted in specific areas (Waterloo Region, Thunder Bay, Sault Saint Marie)
