Every month, on the third Friday, our community gathers to show solidarity with Ukraine. We invite church leaders, community representatives, and American officials to join us in this important event. Together, our goal is to stand united with Ukraine and offer our collective prayers for its peace, victory, and prosperity. This event is inclusive and welcomes everyone, regardless of their background or affiliation. We believe in the transformative power of unity and prayer to bring about positive change. By coming together, we aim to express our support and compassion for the people of Ukraine during these challenging times. Join us as we unite our voices and hearts, fostering a sense of global community and shared hope. We invite everyone to participate in this meaningful occasion.

The event draws in thousands of attendees and offers a range of activities, such as trade shows, consultations, master classes by famous stylists/makeup artists, raffle prizes, and more. The festival is held annually and will celebrate its 23th year on May 18, 2024, at Downtown Sacramento’s Southside Park. This family-oriented, multicultural event brings together over a dozen ethnic groups from the greater Sacramento area.

During the rally, we will have guest speakers, community leaders, and activists who will address the current unprovoked aggression against Ukraine and its impact on the global stage. There will also be opportunities for attendees to engage in peaceful demonstrations, sign petitions, and learn more about how they can contribute to the cause. Additionally, there will be various activities and a flashmob in support of Ukraine, including booths with items to support Ukraine, a station to draw pictures for Ukrainian soldiers, and various Ukrainian food offerings for attendees to enjoy.

On January 13th, Napa Valley to Ukraine together with their partners at the Ukrainian American House and Town of Yountville will host its second annual fundraiser. Funds raised this year will support Ukrainian refugees in our communities.

The Ukrainian American House will host the Forum for Ukrainian Community Leaders who live in the USA. The forum will join Ukrainian social, business, religious, and political leaders to discuss strategies for supporting Ukraine and developing the Ukrainian community in the US. The event will take place as part of the 2023 Independence Day Celebration in Sacramento.

The Ukrainian Independence Day Banquet was hosted by the UA House and Consulate General of Ukraine in San Francisco.
