Stand With Ukraine

Every day, innocent civilians bear the brunt of this war, especially children, the elderly, those with disabilities and other vulnerable groups. The United Nations reports that at least 6million Ukrainians have fled to neighboring countries or farther abroad, with another 5 million internally displaced by ongoing violence. People in displacement centers and communities living on the frontline in damaged homes without access to heating are particularly at risk. With winter fast approaching, millions of Ukrainians need immediate humanitarian assistance– everything from food and water to shelter and medicine.
The deliberate destruction of Ukrainian theaters, museums, music halls and UNESCO heritage sites has been a consistent feature of the conflict, amounting to a cultural genocide. Artists, musicians, dancers, writers, poets and creatives of all kinds have fled the country – including some members of the National Ballet of Ukraine performing on this tour. While many have plied their craft abroad, others’ livelihoods have been destroyed, jeopardizing Ukraine’s rich cultural heritage.
Your attendance at these dazzling performances across Canada supports the arts and talented artists in exile, while sponsorships and individual donations directly fund non-profits operating in Ukraine. HUMANITE and the Olena Zelenska Foundation work directly with Ukrainian families to provide crisis relief, refugee aid, and seed long-term projects to rebuild the country once peace prevails.
