NYON, Switzerland — Soccer clubs helping refugees from the war in Ukraine have been given $686,000 toward their humanitarian projects. The European Club Association says the 15 clubs it's supporting include Athletic Bilbao, Celtic, Dinamo Zagreb, Legia Warsaw and Maccabi Haifa. The ECA says those clubs are working "to assist displaced children and families during the ongoing Ukrainian humanitarian crisis." The ECA set up a $1 million Ukrainian relief fund in March working alongside the UEFA Foundation for Children charity.
