Ukraine relief – what you can do

We all do everything we can to help bring help to people affected by the war in Ukraine. For our Uber community in Poland, these efforts are particularly important, as many of our friends and colleagues, as well as drivers using our platform, are Ukraine-born, while their families are currently trying to escape the war zone. See what you can do to help and learn what else Uber is doing to help Ukraine.

If you want to donate goods to the Red Cross and wish to go to the collection center by yourself, use the code to get there for free. List of codes:

It’s simple! You are a kind person and you’re collecting gifts that you want to donate, while we help you get to the donation point for free. All you have to do is add the code, enter the address of the Polish Red Cross and wait with your packages for the driver to arrive.

If you are in either of these two cities and you know someone who’s currently in Hrebenne, Budomierz, Korczowa, Przemysl, or Medyka who needs help with reaching Rzeszów; or in Dolhobyczow, Dorohusk, Chelm, or Zosin in need of reaching Lublin, by choosing the option Uber Aid, with POMOCLUBELSKIE or POMOCPODKARPACKIE** codes you’ll be able to take a ride to and from either of these crossings free of charge. You can also share the code directly with someone who you know will put it to good use.

If you want to donate money but don’t know how to find a reliable charity organization, take a look at our list of verified charities, currently engaged in multiple local relief actions (the list will be updated)

The refugees need our help immediately. This is why we’ve launched a set of initiatives to provide support to the charities, fleet partners who help in the border zone, as well as everyone who has found themselves in need of help, because of the warfare.

-> Donate money for charities and institutions organizing help in Ukraine and for the refugees 

-> Support our fleet partners, financially and operationally

-> Finance rides and meals for volunteers 

-> Establish cooperation with the authorities of the cities that need help

The past days have shown how wonderfully our community can unite. We are glad that we can help in these difficult times, using our technology for a good purpose. We encourage you to join us and help as much as you can.
