The crisis in Ukraine is both a tragedy and an outrage, and UNA-USA condemns the Russian invasion and attacks on Ukraine. This is an offense and violation of the UN charter, and we are committed to helping Ukrainians in this conflict.
We don’t have to sit and watch. Take action with us by donating to OCHA’s Ukraine Humanitarian Fund to support on-the-ground assistance in Ukraine, sending a message to your Members of Congress to ensure the U.S. continues to support the UN in Ukraine, and stay educated by learning more below.

Then join us on April 27 at 1 p.m. ET for networking with experts, hearing from inspiring speakers, and professional skill building in areas like media, policy, writing, professional presence, and more! Members under the age of 26 are encouraged to register for free under the B ticket!
