Our Mission

We develop strong connections with trusted partners, sending funds and supplies directly to the regions of Ukraine that need it most. The majority of our annual revenue goes directly to Ukraine in the form of medical equipment, reconstruction materials and disaster relief.

We help welcome newcomer refugees to Broome County by connecting applicants with local sponsors, paying legal fees, finding housing, public school enrollment, rent payments, job placement, transportation, English as a Second Language Support, and social emotional learning opportunities for refugee youth.

We celebrate the richness of Ukrainian folks arts, music and culture by representing Ukraine at local cultural events and festivals. From craft workshops, municipal culture nights, music and arts festivals, we are proud to share the diverse and resilient cultures of Ukraine. 

 By partnering with SEED, you help support small, direct initiatives that make a significant impact in Ukrainian classrooms. Founded by veteran educator Ola Taras, SEED aims to empower teachers, foster innovation, and create opportunities for meaningful collaboration and cultural exchange
