On 26 February, the couple took to social media to pledge that they will be matching donations made to “USA for United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees” and urged fans to contribute amid the crisis and support displaced Ukrainians. “In 48 hours, countless Ukrainians were forced to flee their homes to neighboring countries. They need protection. When you donate, we’ll match it up to $1,000,000, creating double the support,” Ryan Reynolds wrote in a retweet of the USA for UNHCR account.

The Deadpool star shared a link to the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) where people can donate money to help displaced families.

Meanwhile, Gossip Girl star Blake Lively took to Instagram to post a similar message writing, “@VancityReynolds [Reynolds’ Instagram handle] and I are doubling every dollar donated to @usaforunhcr up to $1,000,000. Link in bio to donate,” before adding, “@Usaforunhcr is on the ground helping the 50,000+ Ukrainians who had to flee their homes in less than 48 hours.”

"@usaforunhcr is providing life saving aid, and also working with neighboring countries to ensure protection for these families,” she added.
