Organizational structure and purpose

Nova Ukraine's Board of Directors is chaired by co-founder Nick Bilogorskiy. [8] The organization relies on a diverse volunteer base, comprising individuals from various cultural and professional backgrounds. [9] [10] [11] While English serves as the primary language for official business, Ukrainian is also utilized within the organization. Nova Ukraine delivers aid directly as well as through partnerships with hospitals, local volunteer groups, state services and local authorities, Ukrainian manufacturing and distribution companies. [3]

Charitable and Philanthropic Objectives

Nova Ukraine aims to support vulnerable Ukrainian communities such as refugees, internally displaced persons, children, families affected by war, and wounded defenders undergoing medical treatment. It provides healthcare, education, and essential aid. The organization contributes to Ukraine’s recovery from economic and social disruptions while promoting the growth of civil society. Additionally, it promotes Ukrainian culture in the United States. [3] [12] Nova Ukraine selectively funds initiatives that demonstrate significant impact and sustainability. [13] It prioritizes projects that build resilience, foster self-sufficiency, and support the long-term goal of cultivating a robust civil society in Ukraine. Such efforts include resources for cultural development, social mobility, and creating conditions for future stability. [13]

Geographic Structure

Nova Ukraine is headquartered in Palo Alto, California, with initial efforts centered around utilizing the technical and financial expertise of Silicon Valley to support Ukraine. [14] The organization's operations have since expanded to other parts of the United States, including Southern California, Washington, Nevada, Utah, New York, and Washington, D.C., as well as to Europe. [15] In response to the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, Nova Ukraine increased aid and services, establishing a subsidiary office in Kyiv and expanding operational capabilities with reporting teams and warehouses in multiple Ukrainian cities. [16] In 2022, the organization provided an estimated $55.5 million in humanitarian aid, encompassing food, medical supplies, and other critical resources for affected communities both within Ukraine and among refugees abroad. [17]

Team Structure

Nova Ukraine’s volunteer teams operate through a structured framework, allowing for specialized focus areas to maximize their impact. Key teams include finance, medical, logistics, ground operations, refugee support, education and culture, fundraising, donor relations, human resources, web development, social media, marketing, and special projects. [5] Each team manages its budget independently, with responsibility for financial accountability and media reporting related to specific projects.

Activities and accomplishments

Nova Ukraine organizes cultural events and street rallies in the San Francisco Bay Area, [18] delivers humanitarian aid to Ukraine, and works closely with other nonprofits and volunteers focused on helping Ukraine. [19] [20] In 2022, Nova Ukraine joined the American Coalition for Ukraine to participate in Ukraine advocacy initiatives. [21]

The Founding Years

In 2014, Nova Ukraine raised nearly $100,000 in humanitarian aid for Ukraine, supporting initiatives like Station Kharkiv, which provided assistance to internally displaced persons and families from conflict zones. [22] In February 2014, Nova Ukraine organized a concert by Okean Elzy, in collaboration with "Save Lives Together," and used profits from ticket sales to purchase $23,000 worth of medical equipment for hospitals in conflict areas. [23] [24] [25] [26] The organization also co-organized a performance by the Ukrainian band Skryabin in San Francisco, with part of the concert's proceeds donated to Nova Ukraine's charitable projects. [27] In September, Nova Ukraine hosted a fundraiser featuring Eurovision winner Ruslana, raising funds for the Ukrainian Sunrise Charitable Foundation to support displaced people. [28] [29]

The Heart2Heart Program

[30] In 2018, the Heart2Heart program [30] delivered 80,000 pounds of humanitarian aid (donations from ordinary people) in Ukraine, spending a total of $41.5K for the project on warehousing and transportation. [30] In 2019, over 55,000 pounds of humanitarian aid was delivered to Ukraine, with $54.5K spent. [31] Each year, some 600 pounds of Christmas and New Year presents were delivered to children in Kyiv, Kharkiv, Poltava, Odesa, Lviv, Zakarpattia, Volyn oblasts as well as parts of the Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts remaining under control of the Kyiv government.

COVID Years

In 2020, Nova Ukraine, like other institutions worldwide, focused on countering the coronavirus pandemic. In March 2020, doctors urgently needed personal protective equipment such as medical masks, respirators, gloves and gowns to protect themselves from the disease. Nova Ukraine organized a fundraiser and doubled the $6,000 raised to purchase them. In April, the amount of money raised reached $75,000, and the work did not stop there. [32] As of May 2020, a total of 4255 FPP2 respirators were purchased together with Patients of Ukraine to distribute to 14 Ukrainian hospitals in 8 regions of Ukraine: Ivano-Frankivsk, Poltava, Kyiv, Rivne, Ternopil, Chernivtsi, and Zakarpattia. 2,000 bio-costumes to protect doctors and nurses were purchased. In August 2020, Nova Ukraine shifted its focus to buying oxygen concentrators for frontline hospitals of Ukraine. Together with Patients of Ukraine, they bought and distributed 17 oxygen concentrators to hospitals across Ukraine that needed them the most. [33]

In 2021, Nova Ukraine continued its support, raising $365,627 and spending $293,738 on various projects. [34] The organization provided 46 oxygen concentrators to hospitals [35] and expanded its humanitarian efforts through the Heart2Heart Project, supplying essential goods to children and adults with disabilities. [36] Nova Ukraine also supported Ukrainian veterans and soldiers, contributed to the ENGin project for youth language skills, [37] organised celebration of Ukraine's Independence Day, [38] and promoted Ukrainian cinema, reflecting its ongoing commitment to Ukraine’s health, culture, and well-being.

Throughout the year, the organization delivered over 1 million meals and 100,000 batches of supplies, mobilized over 3,500 volunteers, and provided assistance to more than 1.25 million internally displaced persons and refugees globally. [39] [5]

In March 2022, Nova Ukraine partnered with several Ukrainian organizations, including the Ukrainian Student Association at Stanford, to deliver $3.5 million worth of medical supplies, such as bandages, surgery kits, and pediatric medicines, to Ukraine. The supplies were flown from Seattle to Poland and then transported to Ukraine for distribution by the Ministry of Health. [40] [41] [42] [43]

The organization also worked with Unite with Ukraine and the Ukrainian World Congress to purchase 9,000 medical tourniquets. [44] Nova Ukraine joined forces with UNICEF USA for joint fundraising efforts [45] and quickly established a team to support Ukrainian refugees in the U.S., Mexico, and Europe. [46] [47] Volunteers provided aid at refugee camps, helped families apply for humanitarian parole, and offered legal assistance, particularly at border crossings like San Ysidro. [48] [49] [50] [51] [52] [53]

Additionally, Nova Ukraine, in collaboration with Firefighter Aid Ukraine, collected over $3 million worth of rescue equipment and medical supplies from Canadian fire stations, which were delivered to State Emergency Service of Ukraine.
