<p class="">Dear members of the Texas Section of the American Physical Society (TSAPS),</p>
<div class=""> <br class="webkit-block-placeholder">
</div>
<p class="">The APS stated on February 26, 2022 that "The American Physical Society (APS) condemns the Russian invasion of Ukraine and is gravely concerned about its impact. APS stands in solidarity with the Ukrainian physics community and all people whose
safety has been jeopardized, and whose homes, families and careers have been disrupted by the violence." On its webpage APS Response to the Invasion of Ukraine, the APS provides guidance on ways to help including the support of the US National Academies of
Sciences (NAS) Safe Passage Fund. As stated on its website:<span class=""> </span></p>
<p class="">"The U.S. National Academy of Sciences has established the Safe Passage Fund to help Ukrainian scholars and their families who are being forced to flee Ukraine because of the Russian invasion. The NAS is covering the cost of these efforts with its
own funds so that 100% of individual donations can be used to support grants that will allow Ukrainian scholars to continue their important contributions to international science and research. These efforts will take place through the Scientists and Engineers
in Exile or Displaced (SEED) program, which was launched in August 2021, after the fall of Kabul and the resulting escape of large numbers of Afghan scientists and engineers. The fund will be used in the future to support other displaced or exiled researchers
around the world."<br class="">
</p>
<p class="">TSAPS supports this effort and, through the generosity of its members, would like to raise $20,000 for the NAS Safe Passage Fund. On May 15, 2022, APS created a program in which it would match donations by its Units to the NAS Safe Passage Fund.
Through the auspices of this program, TSAPS has made a donation of $6,344.87 that will be matched for a total donation of $12,689.74. We need your help to get the rest of the way there ($7,310.26).<span class=""> </span><strong class=""> We would like to
ask all TSAPS members to make individual donations through the<span class=""> </span><a href="https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww8.nationalacademies.org%2Facademygiving%2Fnasem%2Facademygiving.aspx%3Ffundname%3DSafe%2520Passage%2520Fund&data=05%7C01%7CBarbara.Szczerbinska%40tamucc.edu%7C6e1faa86df9747a1083508da506dc30b%7C34cbfaf167a64781a9ca514eb2550b66%7C0%7C0%7C637910729627845047%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=88tw%2FVRcp3b%2F4x8qsy8vFn8vQ5FAUjdzeg%2FOkIPH9JE%3D&reserved=0" title="https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww8.nationalacademies.org%2Facademygiving%2Fnasem%2Facademygiving.aspx%3Ffundname%3DSafe%2520Passage%2520Fund&data=05%7C01%7CBarbara.Szczerbinska%40tamucc.edu%7C6e1faa86df9747a1083508da506dc30b%7C34cbfaf167a64781a9ca514eb2550b66%7C0%7C0%7C637910729627845047%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=88tw%2FVRcp3b%2F4x8qsy8vFn8vQ5FAUjdzeg%2FOkIPH9JE%3D&reserved=0" style="color: rgb(66, 139, 202); text-decoration: underline;" class="">NAS
