Donate to YOUkraine.org and help Ukrainian soldiers protect the civilized world.
To help Ukrainian defenders have a peace of mind and focus on fighting the enemy, while honoring their fallen comrades by providing direct, financial support for their the families in the most difficult time of their life.
I was born and grew up in Ukraine back when it was still part of the USSR. Hence, I had a direct view of the Soviet state’s disregard for basic personal freedoms, prohibition of dissenting views and a deep hate for the democratic societies peddled by the propaganda machine, sounds familiar?
In the summer of 1991 at the age of seventeen, basketball gave me an opportunity to defect from the oppressive Soviet regime and ask for political asylum.

For the next 17 years I lived, studied, and worked in the US and Western Europe, but I always felt a force pulling me back to my motherland. In 2008, I decided that my skills and experience will be more useful and impactful in Ukraine, so I moved to Kyiv.
Since making the move, I have worked in management consulting supporting commercial and government clients as well as in the nonprofit sphere facilitating economic reforms, helping professionalize the civil service, mentoring youth and assisting disadvantaged Ukrainians affected by the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2014.

What motivates me most is the fact that on numerous occasions Vladimir Putin has publicly stated that the breakup of the USSR was the biggest tragedy of the 20th century and for over a decade, he has been methodically trying to rebuild Russia in the evil, old Soviet ways.
Don't lent him hold the world a hostage. He absolutely has to be stopped and the time is now. Donate to Youkraine.org and help Ukrainian defenders fight with all their might.
