Story
Thousands of professional and student musicians have been displaced by the war in Ukraine. They are leaving their homes with not much more than their instruments, and in some cases without these too.
We are a team of musicians who are helping on the ground. We can help house people, either with us or with trusted musician colleagues and with your donations we can pay for visas, covid tests, replacements for lost clothes and belongings, organising safe onward travel and emergency relief funds.
We are helping Ukrainian musicians move through countries bordering Ukraine to take up positions and emergency residency programme, or to reach relatives, friends or musical volunteers who can accommodate them.
If you are an institution and are able to offer an emergency residency, or a place for musicians to continue to perform or study - please do email us at helpmusiciansukraine@gmail.com

-------------
Tausende professionelle Musiker und Musikstudenten wurden durch den Krieg in der Ukraine vertrieben. Sie verlassen ihre Heimat mit nicht viel mehr als ihren Instrumenten, teilweise auch ohne diese.
Wir sind ein Team von Musikern die vor Ort helfen. Wir helfen Menschen eine Unterkunft zu finden, entweder bei uns oder bei vertrauenswürdigen Musikerkollegen.
Mit Ihren Spenden können wir Visa, Covid-Tests, Ersatz für verlorene Kleidung und Habseligkeiten bezahlen, eine sichere Weiterreise und Nothilfegelder organisieren.
Wir helfen ukrainischen Musikern, über die an die Ukraine angrenzenden Länder zu reisen, um in ein Notresidenzprogramm aufgenommen zu werden oder Verwandte, Freunde oder ehrenamtliche Musiker zu erreichen, bei denen sie Unterkunft finden können.
Wenn Sie eine Institution sind und Musikern eine Notresidenz oder einen Platz anbieten können, damit sie weiterhin auftreten oder studieren können, senden Sie uns bitte eine E-Mail an helpmusiciansukraine@gmail.com

1 month agoHappy Orthodox Easter! This week was a good week. 3 separate musical families have passed through Warsaw in the last few days, and are now safely in Norway & Germany. One of our UK "Homes for Ukraine" guests has finally been given her visa, and we just heard that the Canadian visa for one of our other guests has also been approved! THANK YOU for all of your help and support! It is making such a difference to so many people!

1 month agoThank you so much for all your support so far! Earlier this week, 1 more musician and 2 family members safely reached Denmark. We have managed to find housing for musicians and their families in Salzburg and Vienna, and are still waiting for our first UK visa applications under the "Homes for Ukraine" scheme to clear. We are thrilled to see so many universities and professional orchestras offering study placements, jobs and support to Ukrainian musicians, and are working hard to get people there! Thank you again for all your support!

2 months agoWe've reached 25% of our initial funding goal! Thank you so much for all your support so far! In the last 48 hours, we've managed to reunite a family who were separated, provide emergency childcare for a young mother who had to spend over 7 hours in the queue at the Ukrainian consulate here in Warsaw, continue to connect musicians with job opportunities and to facilitate travel and visa applications! Thank you again for all your support and for helping Ukrainian musicians and their families directly!
