Why Now

As the war rages on in the heart of Europe followed by the unprovoked, unjustified and barbaric invasion of Ukraine by Russia, people all over the world have unified behind Ukraine and its people. Although much support is being facilitated at the U.S. government level as well as the private sector, with no clear end in sight, much more help is critical. We are committed to collecting the necessary funds for a very specific need. Your participation is instrumental. 

Our Mission

To collect $1,000,000+ in donations for Ukrainian Resistance Foundation and Kharkiv Special School for Visually Impaired Children.
