Where to buy Postcards & support Ukraine

We’ve written before about a number of places where you can buy postcards from Ukrainian suppliers. Including at UA Postcards.

But it’s worth reminding you.

Just like any other online postcard shop, you can buy blank postcards from UA Postcards to write to anyone, which I have done. I like a variety of cards in my stash to write to Ukraine’s front line Defenders as well as to friends in Ukraine and elsewhere.

You can also buy a postcard that is written specially to someone. Even to yourself. You pay more than you would for a single card on the website, or in your local tourist shop, but the extra goes directly to buy supplies for Defenders. I have bought such cards to be written to me (cuz I collect postcards) as well as for others, either as a birthday gift or as a thank you note. The price is reasonable, you get to choose your messaging, and the cards have always arrived at their destinations. We are constantly impressed with the ability of UkrPoshta to keep mail services functioning under invasion conditions.

UA Postcards has a special feature: Postcards for a Purpose. Here, you can buy a postcard to be written to a Russian embassy or consulate of your choice (yes, they have all of the addresses). Or, you can buy the “Eyes in the Sky” postcard that specifically supports the Special Unit of the State Border Guard of Ukraine by helping to fund essential defence equipment, such as drones. Or, you can buy their latest addition: a postcard to send a message to U.S. leaders.

Another shop, new to us, is Zolota Ptakha. Again, a Ukrainian online shop that sells postcards, among other stationery items such as envelopes and stickers. At first glance, prices seem to be a lot, when you see 17.80 for a card. BUT, that’s in Ukrainian currency, which amounts to about 61cents, Canadian. Very reasonable.
