UA House Hosts Thanksgiving Event for Ukrainian Refugees
22 November 2024
Roseville, CA – November 23, 2024 – On November 21, 2024, UA House hosted a heartfelt Thanksgiving event for Ukrainian refugees who are living in affordable housing provided through the support of UA House, made possible by the generosity of caring Americans. The event, part of the Care4U and Edu4U programs, focused on mental health support and underscored the compassion and solidarity of the American community, which has come together to assist refugees in their time of need.
The event, titled "Thriving Through Change: The Art of Gratitude," explored the connection between emotional health, gratitude, and navigating life’s transitions. Participants learned how practicing gratitude can help build resilience, maintain a positive outlook, and foster emotional balance, even during difficult times. Licensed counselors led discussions and activities, offering valuable tools to help attendees manage the emotional challenges of adjusting to life in the U.S.
As part of our existing programs as CARE4U, EDU4U and direct refugee assistance which provides year-round support services to Ukrainian refugees, the event aimed to support participants in coping with the trauma and stress of displacement, while helping them adjust to their new lives. For many, it was a chance to reflect on their journey and find comfort in the support and generosity of others as they begin to rebuild their lives in the U.S.
The event also celebrated the spirit of Ukrainian-American cooperation and the deep generosity of the American community. It highlighted how Americans have come together to support those who have fled hardship and are working to rebuild their lives.
As part of the celebration, each family received a free turkey from UA House to help make their holiday special.
FOX40 covered the event, showcasing the positive impact of UA House and the resilience of Ukrainian refugees as they adapt to their new lives in the U.S. UA House representatives, building managers, and refugees were interviewed, sharing their experiences and discussing the ongoing impact of UA House programs.

UA House Launches Initiative to Support Struggling Families in Rivne, Ukraine
15 October 2024
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Sacramento, CA - October 15, 2024 - UA House is proud to announce the launch of the "Support for Struggling Families in Rivne" initiative, a vital fundraising effort aimed at assisting families facing significant hardships following Russian full-scale invasion. This initiative focuses particularly on families with members who have disabilities, single mothers, and those who are unable to afford basic necessities such as food.
As the situation in Ukraine continues to present challenges, many families are struggling to meet their basic needs. The impact of these difficulties is profound, affecting not only their physical well-being but also their emotional and mental health. Without assistance, countless families will face hunger and insecurity, which can have lasting effects on their lives and the community as a whole.
UA House is committed to making a difference. Our goal is to raise $60,000, which will enable us to provide crucial support to these families for an entire year. This funding will be directed towards food assistance, essential supplies, and resources that will help families regain stability and dignity during these trying times.
“We believe that everyone deserves the basic right to food and support, especially those who are most vulnerable,” said Caroleana Kvaterchuk Allison, Executive Director of UA House. “With your help, we can provide critical assistance to families in need, empowering them to overcome their current challenges and build a brighter future.”
We invite the community and generous supporters to join us in this important cause. Your contributions, no matter how small, can create a ripple effect of positive change. Together, we can ensure that families in Rivne do not face their struggles alone and that they receive the help they deserve.
