Ukrainian American Coordinating Council

In 2025, a UACC contribution of just $1,100 toward shipping and event support helped bring handcrafted items from two Ukrainian artisan groups to New York City — resulting in $16,625 in sales supporting displaced artisans, humanitarian aid efforts, and the Ukrainian Museum in NYC.

That is an incredible 1,500% return on investment.

This is what meaningful community support looks like: a relatively small contribution creating real, measurable impact across multiple missions at once — sustaining Ukrainian artisans, preserving culture, and helping fund institutions that keep Ukraine’s story visible in the U.S.

UACC is proud to support collaborative efforts like this by helping connect people, partners, and opportunities that turn solidarity into results.

Every shipment, every sale, every partnership matters. 💙💛

Thank you, Ukrainian Institute of America, UNWLA - Ukrainian National Women's League of America, Inc., Ukrainian Museum, Бахмут Український, Бахмутський Оберіг творча майстерня Bakhmut Oberig, and special thanks to Natasha Wanchek for coordinating this project.

The Ukrainian American Coordinating Council (UACC) continues its long-standing commitment to honoring the memory of Holodomor victims. This year, UACC Vice President Maria Tscherepenko brought the community together for a solemn remembrance gathering.

🕯 Holodomor Remembrance Day calls us to reflect not only on a national tragedy but on the millions of lives and futures stolen — families, children, entire villages deliberately erased by Stalin’s famine genocide.

On November 15, 2025, Consul General Dmytro Kushneruk addressed the audience and welcomed the community to this shared moment of memory and solidarity. Community members gathered at the San Francisco Public Library to honor the victims and to reaffirm the responsibility to preserve historical truth.

Dr. Natalie Goshylyk then led the audience through a presentation titled “Holodomor Genocide in Books”, highlighting how Ukrainian writers and authors worldwide have carried the truth of the Holodomor across generations through literature, testimony, and storytelling.

The program concluded with a screening of “Hunger for Truth: The Rhea Clyman Story”, a powerful documentary about a young Jewish Canadian journalist who refused to look away in the 1930s. The film bridges Ukraine’s past and present, reminding us that bearing witness then and now remains an act of moral courage.

Together we remembered. Together, we carried the light forward. 🕯
