Regenerate Ukraine is an inclusive volunteer organization that facilitates cross-cultural exchange to invest, enact and envision the future of a free, sustainable, and prosperous Ukraine.

We do this through:

Virtual and in-person cross-cultural exchange programs exploring language, technology, ecology, arts, and culture that are relevant to the economic, cultural and ecological regeneration of Ukrainian communities in a time of war and displacement.

Offering culturally appropriate language, literacy, health, and career training for immigrants and displaced people of various backgrounds, as well as providing direct support for newly-arrived families displaced by the war in Ukraine.

Organizing, collecting, and delivering direct humanitarian aid to Ukraine, including medical supplies, food, clothing, educational materials, technology, and rebuilding resources—directly to individuals, families, schools, and community institutions in Ukraine affected by war and humanitarian crises.

Partnering with U.S. and Ukraine-based nonprofits, civic groups, and institutions to coordinate charitable efforts, amplify impact, and fund culturally and socially beneficial initiatives aligned with our mission.
