The American Coalition for Ukraine is an alliance of over 100 U.S.-based organizations that have joined their efforts and resources to support Ukraine in its defense of the universal values of freedom and human dignity. Coalition partners call the United States home, but many of us share historical experiences of oppression, violence, and war in our countries of origin and ancestral homelands – often at the hands of Russian imperialism.
The fourth consecutive Ukraine Action Summit concluded on April 16th, 2024. Over 500 delegates from 47 states flew into Washington, D.C., to meet with their elected officials and advocate for Ukraine. This was one of the largest and arguably most important Ukraine Action Summits organized to date. Together, our delegates conducted over 350 meetings, effectively conveying the urgent need for support for Ukraine directly to the offices of elected officials.
