United Ukrainian American Relief Committee, Inc. was founded in 1944 to help the many Ukrainian refugees coming to America after World War II. Since that time, Ukrainians throughout the world have been helped in many, many ways. Our programs are far-reaching and varied, and aim to help our brothers help themselves. We are often first to respond to aid victims of disasters such as floods, mine accidents, etc., in addition to our humanitarian aid, education and sustainable land programs abroad, and our immigrant aid programs here in the US.
