Stand With Ukraine Foundation

Stand With Ukraine Foundation Our mission is to save, support, strengthen and sustain Ukraine Together, hand in hand, invincible we stand!

ABOUT US
Stand With Ukraine Foundation was set up in Los Angeles long before the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine. While Russian troops were amassing around the borders of Ukraine, and conducting their supposed "military exercises," most of the world were spectators just waiting for what would happen next, but we acted. The Stand With Ukraine movement in Los Angeles was the first to initiate

international rallies in support of Ukraine a whole month before the war. Today we are the #1 glocal (local and global) movement to support, strengthen and sustain Ukraine, the frontline of world freedom, democratic values and peace, being defended with the lives of the brave. For all our efforts, SWU Foundation has been recognized by many governmental agencies and public officials, including the Consulate General of Ukraine in San Francisco and California State Senator Josh Newman, among others. We have been spotlighted on all major national TV news channels, as well as radio, printed and online media. ACTIVISM AND ADVOCACY
Our volunteers ceaselessly organize rallies and campaigns supporting Ukraine in the USA and around the world. We lobby effectively to influence critical political decisions, changing the course of the war in favor of Ukraine. AID TO UKRAINE AND VOLUNTEER CENTERS
SWU Foundation runs multiple volunteer centers handling humanitarian aid. We purchase, collect, package and ship life-saving medical aid, as well as basic military supplies, all of which Ukraine desperately needs as a result of the Russian invasion. CULTURAL DIPLOMACY
As a crucial part of our activity, we promote the Ukrainian language and culture at our events, showcasing Ukrainian art, music, and traditions for the sake of our civic duty to the Glory of Ukraine. SWU Foundation stands for the protection of cultural rights which are essential to sustaining a peaceful inclusive society.

NALBF 2026: Gathering Shaped by Purpose, Proven by Action, Where Partnership Becomes Power

North American Lithuanian Business Forum 2026. A gathering of some of the brightest minds and most generous, clear-hearted people brought together in true unity.

Ukraine was not on the sidelines, it was at the very center, as the nation of heroes holding the shield for the free world, fending off ruZZian military aggression. In every speech, every panel, every conversation, public and private, name Ukraine was carried with gratitude, intention and emphasis. Not as a gesture, but as a constant presence.

What stands out most is the people behind it, thoughtful, driven, and deeply committed. This is what real partnership looks like, where support is not declared, but lived through action. Allies who understand what is at stake and stand with Ukraine with strength and conviction.

With sincere gratitude to

Embassy of Lithuania in Washington, D.C.
Consulate General of Lithuania in Los Angeles
Lithuanian American Business Association in Los Angeles
Ministry of Economy and Innovation of Lithuania
Ministry of National Defence of Lithuania

and to all the brilliant, tech minded partners shaping this effort. We love and deeply appreciate your enduring dedication proven through results.

A staged reading of “Military Mom” and “Balance” by Alina Sarnatska, a veteran and former frontline combat medic.

Both plays will be performed in English.

These deeply personal works explore war, motherhood, memory, and survival - revealing the emotional reality of life between the battlefield and the civilian world.

“Military Mom” follows a combat medic who saves lives daily while navigating the impossible balance between service and motherhood.
“Balance” is an intimate story of a woman veteran searching for meaning, stability, and humanity after war.

The reading will be followed by a live Q&A with the playwright, moderated by Zorianna Kit.

All proceeds will support Ukrainian field medics through Leleka Foundation.

На передовій пульс життя тримають ті, хто не має права на паузу. Рятувати - це не гасло. Це робота, яка потребує рішень, швидкості і підтримки.
Цей медевак- не просто автомобіль. Це повністю укомплектована система порятунку для українських медиків 67ї механізованої бригади, які ризикують життям, рятуючи оборонців та цивільних фронтової зони.
Дякуємо за те що відгукнулися на заклик і разом з нами долучилися до місії порятунку та допомоги тим, хто робить неможливе можливим там, де відлік ціни життя в пекельних умовах війни вимірюється долями секунди. Це ще одна історія перемоги життя над смертю та світла над темрявою. Це ще одне серце, яке продовжує битися на славу Україні! Місія триває. Приєднуйтеся!

On St. Patrick’s Day, the world turns a little greener. At this point, it almost feels like a friendly camouflage, and perhaps a little borrowed Irish luck for Ukraine. 🍀

Stand With Ukraine Foundation was honored to be invited to the Residence of the Consul General of Ireland in Los Angeles for the celebration of St. Patrick’s Day, graciously hosted by Consul General Caitlín Higgins Ní Chinnéide and her wonderful team.

It was a special privilege to celebrate this occasion in the company of Ceann Comhairle Verona Murphy T.D., the Chair of Ireland’s Parliament (Speaker of the Dáil Éireann), united in conversations about freedom, resilience, and solidarity.

Ireland’s support for Ukraine is not only appreciated, it is profoundly felt. In times like these, friendships between nations reveal their true strength.

May the green of Ireland, the blue and yellow of Ukraine, and our shared belief in freedom continue to guide us forward toward just victorious peace.

With gratitude to Ireland for standing with Ukraine!

🇮🇪🤝🇺🇦
