Stand with Ukraine: Join Our Peaceful Rally for Justice and Security
This rally is a critical reminder that Putin’s regime continues its genocidal war against Ukraine, and America must not turn its back on Ukraine. We must remind the public that Putin started this war and is responsible for every war crime committed in Ukraine since 2014.
Our message must be loud and clear:
🇺🇦 Ukrainian flags must be seen everywhere.
🇺🇦 The U.S. cannot abandon Ukraine—American national security depends on it.
🇺🇦 Ukraine deserves a just peace with real security guarantees to prevent Putin from using a ceasefire to rebuild and attack again.
Why This Rally Matters
With misinformation spreading—even among some government officials—many Americans are unaware of the true stakes of this war or are losing interest. It is our responsibility to ensure they understand the urgency and severity of the situation. We must counter misinformation with truth, mobilize public support, and demand action.
Call to Action: Make Your Voice Heard
The most powerful action people can take is to call their representatives in Congress and demand:
📢 Continued military and financial aid for Ukraine
📢 Increased pressure on the Administration to tell the truth about the war
📢 Stronger sanctions on Russia to weaken Putin’s war machine
Why Your Support Is Critical
This rally is not just about raising awareness—it’s about making a real impact. By standing together, we send a powerful message: Ukraine must win, Putin’s terror must end, and the U.S. must stay committed to defending freedom and global security.
Join us. Be a voice for justice. Be a force for action. Together, we can ensure that Ukraine is not forgotten, and Putin is not allowed to rebuild and strike again.

Join Us for the Second Ukrainian-American Blood Drive!
After the overwhelming success of our first blood drive, we are continuing this meaningful initiative to give back and save lives!
The Ukrainian-American Blood Drive is a heartfelt gesture of gratitude from Ukrainians and Ukrainian-Americans to the people of the United States for their unwavering generosity and humanitarian aid to Ukraine during the ongoing Ukrainian-Russian conflict. The support provided by the U.S. has saved countless Ukrainian lives, and now, Ukrainians in the U.S. and the Ukrainian-American diaspora are giving back—one blood donation at a time—to help save lives right here in Southern California.
With the backing of the American Coalition for Ukraine, this initiative transforms gratitude into action, strengthening the deep bonds between both nations. Every donation is a powerful act of solidarity, compassion, and hope.
Join us for our second blood drive and be a part of this life-saving mission!
Please mention code UKRN at registration or at any San Diego Blood Bank mobile drive or donor center when you donate blood.

Balboa Park @ El Cid Statue

Since mid-January various supporters of Ukraine started gathering in Balboa Park for weekly rallies calling for the world to Stand with Ukraine against Russian aggression. After the full-scale invasion many of us promised to ourselves and the community that we will be gathering to Stand with Ukraine every weekend until Ukraine is free, peaceful and independent again. Since the beginning of the war tens of thousands have been killed, hundreds of thousands injured, and millions forced out of their homes. Currently the whole country has to live with scheduled blackouts since the enemy has been systematically destroying energy infrastructure all over the country, hoping to intimidate the Ukrainian population, force the Ukrainian government into submission and retaliation and to cause another wave of refugee migration to Western Europe.
Many are fatigued by the war; however, this is the largest war in Europe since World War II, that came with genocide against Ukrainian population, multitude of war crimes and utterly destruction of the infrastructure of the country. This war deserves our full attention because the entire world is affected by the war in Ukraine. On the global scale Ukraine plays an important role and we need to keep reminding the public about it. Our rally is to raise awareness and remind society that the war in Ukraine is not over! Please, join us to Stand with Ukraine.
