Stories: Artem and Nataliia

Uniting for Artem Nataliia and Ukraine (UforANU) started as a private fund by our President, Katie Rios, to help raise money to assist Artem and Nataliia, two Ukrainian refugees she sponsors through the Uniting for Ukraine (U4U) program through USCIS and DHS.

Our President felt that Nataliia, Artem, and herself were in a good financial place that the objective of the fund could more widely benefit Ukraine and its people. $200 of the what was raised priorly was donated to Restore Ukraine and Vols for Ukraine, even in the beginning our President aimed to donate money to registered non-profits aiding Ukraine and its people. Now, that is our one and only mission.

In October 2023, our President started the process of becoming an official, tax-exempt, non-profit with the state of Tennessee and the IRS. Receiving the letter from the IRS approving the application to be tax-exempt under IRC Section 501(c)(3) in the first days of December 2023!

We now host fundraisers/events where the proceeds are granted to chosen non-government organizations (NGO), or to nominated NGOs [nomination form upcoming] that are actively providing aid in Ukraine and/or to Ukrainian refugees in the US.

Thank you for supporting the great people of Ukraine who did not ask for this war.
