You'll need to get them off of the SD card and on to a computer. Then you can use Photos to get them to iCloud.

Or put the sd card in an Android and email them to your device. You can do 20 per email.

1. But an SD card reader and attach it to the USB port of your MacBook and then drag and drop the photos onto your desktop

2. As suggested, you can insert the SD card into an Android device and email the pics to yourself and then open the email on your MacBook to download the photos.

3. You can also use that same Android device to upload the pics to a cloud service like Dropbox and then access that Dropbox from your MacBook to download the pics.

There are numerous ways to do this. Just pick the one that is best suited for you.
