Our team at People of Ukraine Foundation is delighted to have been one of the sponsors of the U.S.-Ukraine Freedom Summit, held earlier this month in Washington, D.C. Organised by The Borderlands Foundation in partnership with many others, this event brought together key stakeholders to discuss crucial tactical and technological innovations for Ukraine’s defense and peace initiatives.
We had the opportunity to invite our partners from The American Legion, U.S.-Ukraine Business Council (USUBC), U.S.-Ukraine Foundation and Veteran Coalition International to join and contribute to the Summit. The panels covered a range of topics, including strategic alliances and advanced defense technologies, veteran rehabilitation, reintegration and employment, highlighting the ongoing cooperation and shared goals between the U.S. and Ukraine.
Also, we had the honor of meeting and spending time with the Ukrainian wounded heroes who also participated at the Summit and at the 1st U.S.-Ukraine Veterans Charity Golf Tournament, held at the Andrew’s Air Force Base. It was our pleasure to organize the tour of the Pentagon and the Army Navy Club in Washington, DC for them.
We offer our heartfelt congratulations to The Borderlands Foundation for bringing all of us together and for organizing such a successful event!!! 🇺🇦🇺🇸

English Language Courses for the Ukrainian Veterans
April -July 2023
People of Ukraine Foundation continues free of charge English Language Program for Combat Veterans of Ukraine.
We have trained now over 420 veterans and see an increase in program participants. Established in September 2019, this program aims to improve participant communication skills and English language knowledge in order to facilitate successful transition to civilian careers. We divide participants into groups according to their prior English language knowledge. Each lesson is designed to provide differentiated learning for each specific participant in order to accelerate the learning process as much as possible. These new abilities are beneficial for everyday use as well as a valuable addition for resume building and employment applications. Moreover, these qualifications increase participant value to potential veteran employers in the local job market. This program creates a positive motivation for achievement in a veteran’s new phase in life as well as assisting combat veterans working through PTSD and other disabilities.
This year the program consists of 65 combat veterans; 22 of them are wounded in the war and going through rehabilitation.
We are thankful to Ministry of Veterans of Ukraine and Ukrainian Veteran Foundation for their support of our program.
English Language Courses is a part of our Hire Combat Veterans of Ukraine Initiative
The goal of this initiative is to empower Ukrainian combat veterans and military spouses to succeed in the civilian workforce. These individuals thrived in tough situations and developed many skills — such as discipline, adaptability and dedication — that many employers need. Join this effort to encourage American, European and Ukrainian businesses to offer jobs to these deserving combat veterans of Ukraine. While the Ukrainian government provides some benefits for combat veterans, they do not include hiring services.Because many veterans transition back into the civilian workforce between the ages of 30 to 40 years, they must acquire or improve their professional qualification skills to compete successfully in the local job market.

People of Ukraine Foundation together with Nataliia Kalmykova CEO of Ukrainian Veteran Foundation held a meeting with Mario A. Marquez, RBLP–T and Joe Sharpe from The American Legion. Truly admire their professionalisms and dedication to supporting fellow veterans and the community.
Chartered by Congress in 1919 as a patriotic veterans organization, the American Legion is focused on service to veterans, servicemembers and communities. The Legion evolved from a group of war-weary veterans of World War I into one of the most influential nonprofit groups in the United States. Membership swiftly grew to over 1 million, and local posts sprang up across the country. Today, membership stands at nearly 2 million in more than 13,000 posts worldwide.
During our meeting I have learned so much about myriad of amazing programs and services, as well as strategic and systematic approach used to create a strong foundation for successful transition from military to civilian life.
Very thankful to Mario and Joe for the educational tour at the American Legion, and for the introduction of the critical programs to improve veteran lives. Thanks so much for your service to our nation!
Looking forward to our partnership with the American Legion and to our US-Ukraine experience exchange to support veterans in Ukraine.

People of Ukraine Foundation hosted Book Presentation "WAR. RU" by Combat Veteran Yuriy Rudenko at the Army Navy Club, Washington DC.
“This book is an important contribution to understanding the current Russian war against Ukraine. It will be read both at home and internationally with deep interest. It covers the first year of the war during 2014 and early 2015. It tells day by day the shocking and often gory tale of how the war unfolded. It tells of the invasion of Crimea, the initial Russian attempts to create Novorossiya in the east of country and of the eventual invasion by battalions of Russian troops before the battle of Debaltseve, thus saving the Russian backed militants from defeat. It tells in a matter of fact way the battles, and the names of some, but not all, of the Ukrainian heroes. It tells of civilian casualties, of those captured and tortured, and gives numbers of those missing. It tells of the Russian and militant casualties and the Russian daily lies to the world. The author tries hard to put the battles in political and military context for that time” – Lt Col (Retd) Glen Grant, Royal Artillery, the first foreign adviser with the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense in 2014

“Sooner or later, Russia will be forced to leave Ukraine and we will learn more details about the technologies and nuances of this hydride war. But the main thing that stopped the implementation of Putin's scenario of "forcing Ukraine to peace" was the spirit and self-sacrifice of the Ukrainian people. This is what this book is about” – Maj Gen (Retd) Volodymyr Havrylov, former Defense Attaché of Ukraine in the USA 2015-2018
