    Former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey Donates $7 Million For Ukrainian Relief

    Jack Dorsey is sending money to organizations helping with the humanitarian crisis in Ukraine. The former Twitter CEO and founder has sent $7 million to benefit Ukrainians impacted by Vladimir Putin and his war. The money is going to be distributed evenly to 7 different initiatives.

    Jack’s $1 million donations are going to the following organizations:
    – Nova Ukraine … a humanitarian aid workgroup on the ground in Ukraine since 2014, run by a group of Silicon Valley-based Ukrainians who work in the tech industry
    – CARE … a crisis fund providing food, water, hygiene kits and more to 4 million Ukrainians, with an emphasis on women, families and the elderly
    – World Central Kitchen … a collection of chefs and others serving thousands of fresh meals to Ukrainians
    – Sunflower of Peace … a group distributing first-aid kits, medicine and medical instruments to paramedics and doctors in war-torn areas of Ukraine
    – Razom … crisis relief workers providing life-saving medical supplies and humanitarian aid and helping Ukraine rebuild
    – Mery Corps … a global team of humanitarians providing emergency cash assistance and connecting people on the move with information, like where to access basic services and find safe routes in Ukraine, Romania and Poland
    -GlobalGiving … a crisis relief fund supporting humanitarian assistance in impacted communities in Ukraine and surrounding regions where refugees are fleeing

    This comes after Russia‘s restriction of access to Twitter for millions of people in the country and Russia’s ex-Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Rogozin has been taking shots at Dorsey about being a free speech Nazi. At least the money will be going to the right places it looks like, and as for Rogozin, I don’t think he has any room to talk.

    I think we’ve all had our issues with Twitter and social media, but Dorsey donating $7 million is okay in my book.
