"They destroyed cities and castles and killed men and Kyiv, which is the greatest Ruthenian city they besieged; and when they had besieged it a long while they took it and killed the people of the city. So when we went through that country we found countless human skulls and bones from the dead scattered over the field. Indeed it had been a very great and populous city and now is reduced almost to nothing. In fact there are hardly two hundred houses there now and the people are held in the strictest servitude."

The Ukrainian World Congress touches more Ukrainian lives than any other organization in the world. We have been able to do so over the past 50 years thanks to the generosity of our donors. UWC is a volunteer-led organization that receives no government funding and relies on your generous donations to continue our good work.

Volodymyr Zelensky 

President of Ukraine

I know that you are working on many educational and cultural programs on different continents. They are very important for our children, not only those who were living abroad before the war, but those who have left Ukraine since, and for whom it is important not to lose Ukrainian culture. This is a very important direction. I'm sure you're doing the work, and the question is how we want to grow it. We want to bring our children back to Ukraine, to rebuild it, because it is for them.
