Together we impact and make a difference
Our top priority is to provide physical and psychological assistance to those Ukrainians who, as a result of the Russian invasion, were forced to flee their homes and seek refuge in Michigan. Together with you, we can create a safe and flourishing community for New Americans and Michiganders alike.

Give Hope to Ukrainians in Michigan
Thousands of Ukrainians in Michigan are facing an uncertain future. Recent changes in U.S.–Ukraine relations may affect their legal status, leaving families who have already survived war and displacement without the support they need.
​
One of the most serious risks is losing work authorization. People who have been building their lives here, supporting their families, and contributing to the community may suddenly find themselves without income, housing, or access to medical care.
