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.
