Pizza for Ukraine is a single purpose, micro charity that takes donations via PayPal, buys pizzas in the Ukraine (Kharkiv) and has them delivered to emergency shelters. 2 months old, over $30,000 in donations and 2,114 pizzas delivered. Getting the word out!
I'm the co-founder of Pizza for Ukraine. I'm also a maker and I love this audience.
Two months ago, I saw a buddy on Facebook say "I'm upset about the Ukraine war and I just called a pizza place in Kharkiv and had some pizzas delivered to a shelter. Pizza isn't much but it also isn't nothing".
I thought this was about the best damn idea I'd seen all year -- a simple micro charity that made a difference and sent 100% of monies raised to our cause -- and my response was "Can I build you a website?" He said yes and 24 hours later we were taking donations via PayPal.
It is still just two makers but it has blossomed into 2,114 pizzas, over $30,000 in donations, 16,912 slices, 6,342 meals, 1,893.1 smoots and over 2 miles of pizza each slice laid end to end. Metrics -- they really matter -- see ours: https://bit.ly/3v0JMMm
We're trying to get the word out. We'd like to do more and we could use the publicity and, honestly, some technical assistance.
