About us
The American Ukraine Committee is a 501(c)(4) nonprofit organization, which means we can advocate for policies and lobby lawmakers to strengthen the U.S. - Ukraine relationship. We unite Americans across the country to support Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and ultimate victory.
Through grassroots advocacy and direct engagement with Congress, we ensure that Ukraine remains a priority in U.S. foreign policy - and that every supporter can make a real impact on decisions that shape America’s role in defending freedom.
