We are back in Ukraine. Good to see our partners helping us support kids impacted by this long, brutal war. Last night Russia launched one of the largest attacks on Kyiv killing at least 18, injuring dozens.

This year’s Ukraine Recovery Conference in Gdańsk felt different. The conversation has evolved beyond rebuilding what has been destroyed. There was a growing recognition that Ukraine is not simply a recipient of international support. www.urc-international.com

When Regional Director Yuliia Kardash planned a visit to UCAP funded programs serving children in Odesa and the surrounding region, a large-scale missile and drone attack made travel unsafe and forced her to postpone the trip.

Tune in today at 5:30 PM ET to MS NOW’s Deadline: White House. I’ll be live with @nicollewallace.bsky.social for special coverage marking four years since Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine. We’ll discuss the war’s impact on children and how UCAP is making a difference. ucap.help @ms.now

In UCAP’s October update, we report from Lviv, where we arrived two days after a massive Russian attack on civilian targets, the largest strike in the region since the full-scale invasion began. Read more here: bit.ly/4oE8886 @ukrainecap.bsky.social www.ucap.help

Today I visited sites of civilian targets in Sunday's Russian air attack on Lviv,Ukraine. In the rubble of a flattened home are toys, baby carriage & shards of an exploded missile. A 15 yo girl & family died there on Sunday. America must stand with & support this democratic ally! See www.UCAP.help

UCAP is on the ground, funding recovery programs for children, resources to equip educators, and support for frontline families to help children stay resilient and hopeful. More in UCAP's latest update: bit.ly/4mdz2Sz

#childhoodvaccines Every parent who has taken their child to a pediatrician hears an explanation. Here are things we know that have caused trouble or killed children in the past. youtu.be/9JS_g1fKW7Y?... @nbcnews.com

In UCAP’s July 2025 Briefing, we report from the Ukraine Recovery Conference in Rome, where global leaders gathered to reaffirm their commitment to Ukraine’s sovereignty as Russia intensifies attacks on civilian targets. Read more: bit.ly/4lZkA16 @ukrainecap.bsky.social www.ucap.help

#Texasflooding Digital messaging warnings are not enough. We are relying on virtual warning systems that older people may not have, batteries that may not be charged, and people with disabilities. www.msnbc.com/chris-jansin... @msnbc.com

The war continues to disrupt the mental health and education of Ukraine’s children. One in five has lost a loved one, and nearly 40% still learn remotely. UCAP is addressing these urgent needs through partnerships across the country. Learn more about the impact we’re making together: bit.ly/4jEZ3cq

Hopefully, Rafal Trzaskowski, highly respected & brilliant mayor of Warsaw will prevail in the presidential race against a Trump-like opponent who would not be a dependable, unshakeable defender of Ukraine - or democracy in Europe.

From life-saving training to educational support, UCAP is helping Ukraine’s youth face today’s challenges and prepare for tomorrow during wartime. Read more in our April report here: bit.ly/42K7z4G @ukrainecap.bsky.social www.ucap.help

In Europe with my favorite hat, getting incredible responses from Europeans and American travelers from all walks of life. The reactions are either sadness for what is happening to the U.S. or anger & frustration over gratuitous chaos caused by POTUS & his incompetent sycophants.

As attacks continue to put children and families at risk, UCAP-funded computer and medical equipment is now in place at all five hospitals in the Dnipro Children’s Telehealth Network, expanding access to much-needed pediatric care across the region.

UCAP's January Newsletter: USAID cuts are forcing local Ukrainian organizations to scale back essential programs, putting children and families at risk.

Now is their time to protect the nation’s health — not just the special interests of their members. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/24/o...
