Maybe Burisma needs a board member or two. I have no experience, but it’s worth a shot.
Yup

I get shaken down every day when riding my motorbike in Ukraine and Moldova.

I've been booking Airbnbs in Ukraine (not going, of course). Airbnb is waiving all the fees, so 100% of my booking $$$ goes to the apartment owners. I realize that these are probably people with more income than the average Ukrainian, but I am booking the lower cost units, in an effort to reach average people.

I don't like talking about where my donations go and how much, but these people deserve our help.
