Today marks four years since the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine. In today’s edition of eJewishPhilanthropy, Shawn Landres shares the story of the grassroots network UA Support Teams (UAST), and reflects on what was built in those first urgent days — and why it continues to matter.

As we mark this solemn anniversary, Project Kesher is proud of the role we played in responding to the full-scale invasion — standing with women leaders, mobilizing global partnerships, and helping sustain communities through unimaginable uncertainty. The work we built together continues to strengthen Ukraine’s resilience today.
