Team Update (4/28)

Even though our team is feeling the impacts of the war we are motivated to help. The team has worked hard to translated POINT to Ukrainian!

Now POINT is being used by Ukrainian nonprofits to recruit and manage their volunteers! 🧡✊

We have sent our team the military helmets that we can find (thank you all for providing the funds to purchase these), but can't find enough. If you have access or want to help search for military helmets please do and contact us at support@pointapp.org.

Team Update (3/18)

The team remains in the western part of Ukraine but now there is conflict in every city in the country. 

Bombing in their city (Ivano-Frankivsk) started last Friday. Living/working during war is unbelievably challenging. 🧡 Ukrainian organizations have asked to use POINT's app so the team has translated it to Ukrainian to help nonprofits on the ground. 

There have been air-raid sirens every night (all night) for this past week - it's relentless.  If you want to learn more about what they are experiencing read this NY Times article and the Guardian.

Team Update (3/4)

Some female family members of the team are now safe in Warsaw Poland. (All team members remain in Ukraine). 

Some team members have returned to the city to protect their homes from thieves. As nearly a million people have left Ukraine, thieves are targeting apartments (opportunistic Russians or some looking for food).

Currently evacuating some of the team's female family members. (Remember men cannot leave). They are on their way to Poland from Chernivtsi, thank you for covering their costs and giving them the choice to leave or stay. 🧡

Team Update (2/25):

Thank you all for helping us reach 25% of our goal. We are so, so thankful for you. 

Yesterday the airbase in Ivano-Frankivsk was hit. (Nick watched it from his apartment building - see photo 👇).

Our team has gone to the villages to be away from cities and targets. Only one person remains in the city currently. Leaving the country isn't an option for team as Ukraine is restricting men ages 18-60 from crossing borders.

Some team members and family members have been called to serve. We will see how this unfolds over the next few days. However, the Ukrainian volunteer lines are so long the military has not been able to register everyone wanting to serve. 

Thank you for sharing this campaign privately, we think it best that we don't splash our team's identity across the internet in case of escalation.
