Our History
Seeing a need for energetic, humanitarian work in this area, we formed our organization to provide grassroots support to Ukrainians displaced by war, with a specific focus on women and children refugees. The Ukraine America Initiative is an approved 501(c)(3) Ukrainian support organization. Our history in, and knowledge of, Ukraine spans more than 3 decades. We have connections in Ukraine civil society, think-tanks, regional and federal governments. We have experience in Ukraine refugee support, humanitarian food support, vaccine delivery and facilitation, logistics, air travel, food production, cross-border employment migration, and International diplomacy. We turn our global perspective into understanding and action.
Our Mission
We focus on providing humanitarian support at a grassroots level to Ukrainians in need and specifically those displaced by war. We fund daycare centers for Ukrainian children, orphanages, language schools, housing projects, and refugee centers in Ukraine and Poland, and mental and physical wellness projects.
