Russian War In Ukraine Emergency response page
Our Ukraine Support network has been operational in the Triangle for the last 8 years, ever since Russia invaded Ukraine. We have been collecting and shipping medical supplies to Ukraine, helping refugees, wounded warriors, families of perished Ukrainian heroes and orphans. We have hosted numerous cultural events and advocated for assistance to Ukraine. Since February 24, 2022, when Russia started its new phase of war in Ukraine, we have become an even stronger and larger group and welcome your support. We have media coverage, politicians’ attention, but most importantly - everybody’s willingness to help Ukraine’s brave military and citizens.
Please follow our announcements here and on our Facebook group for more updates.
Thank you!
As a community we celebrate and support our people and our culture, #staywithukraine
We want Peace for Ukraine

One year of war...
Like tonight, we gathered right here on Day 1 to protest russia's barbaric invasion of our Ukraine. And we stood here on Day 3 and Day 7 and Day 40 and on many other days to let the world know that russia is evil, that it is killing, raping, torturing and destroying in Mariypil, Bucha, Kharkiv, Chernihiv, Gostomel, Isium, Kherson, Kramatorsk, Vinnytsya, Bakhmut, and that Ukraine needs arms to protect its people from genocide, to defend its land, its independence and our freedom! Glory and honor to all those who fought and who shed their blood to defend Ukraine, eternal memory to all whose lives were taken by russia’s barbaric war.
You've got questions and we have the answers
Who are Ukrainians in the Carolinas?
We are a network of volunteers throughout the Carolinas dedicated to assisting the people of Ukraine and promoting Ukrainian culture in the Carolinas. Our network has been operational in the Triangle for the last 8 years, ever since Russia invaded Ukraine. We have been collecting and shipping medical supplies to Ukraine, helping refugees, wounded warriors, families of perished Ukrainian heroes and orphans. We have hosted numerous cultural events and advocated for assistance to Ukraine. Since February 24, 2022, when Russia started its new phase of war in Ukraine, we have become an even stronger and larger group and welcome your support. We have media coverage, politicians’ attention, but most importantly - everybody’s willingness to help Ukraine’s brave military and citizens. We already shipped several containers of medical supplies, so generously donated to us by local supporters of Ukraine and of freedom. We also provided localized support to various cities throughout Ukraine where there was a great need for food and medical supplies.
