TEXAS 4 UKRAINE

WHAT WE DO

Sponsorship

Thousands of everyday Americans have stepped up to provide a bridge to safety and a path to opportunities for families seeking refuge in the United States through the Uniting For Ukraine program. Texas 4 Ukraine works to promote Sponsorship, providing new Sponsors with support and resources to ensure their success.

Welcome Newcomers

Welcoming newcomers to our shores is an American tradition, as enshrined on the Statue of Liberty and embodies the core values of our country. We work to make our new Ukrainian neighbors feel welcome and supported as they start their journey to rebuild their lives.

Resettlement Information

The team at Texas 4 Ukraine has compiled a comprehensive step-by-step guide  in our BENEFITS page to help newly arrived Ukrainians navigate their way through applying for benefits, getting work authorization, drivers licenses and other essential resettlement documents.

Build Community

Whether it’s having dinners together or attending events hosted by Liberty Ukraine in Austin, we strive to help foster a robust community for our Ukrainian friends who have settled in the Austin area.

Join us in aiding Vikoriia, Oleksander, and their son Slava as they flee war-torn Odesa, Ukraine, seeking safety in the United States. Nightly shelling has turned their city into a battleground, prompting them to make the heart-wrenching decision to leave everything behind for Slava’s safety. They’ve been granted travel authorization to Austin but need help funding their airfare. Your donation could mean the difference between life and death for this brave family. Let’s come together to offer hope and assistance as they embark on their journey to safety, freedom and a brighter tomorrow.

Our mission extends beyond immediate assistance, as we strive to cultivate a tight-knit community that celebrates and perpetuates the rich traditions, language, and customs of the Ukrainian heritage.

Howdy Neighbor, Welcome to Texas

On September 30th, the vibrant Ukrainian community of Austin, in collaboration with Texas4Ukraine, Liberty Ukraine, and CRU, warmly welcomed our newest Ukrainian neighbors. A heartfelt gesture, Texas4Ukraine presented 40 families with welcome boxes, symbolizing our community’s embrace.

Each of these families carries with them stories of loss and resilience in the face of Russia’s invasion of their country. Our collective mission at Texas4Ukraine is not only to welcome them but also to equip them with essential resources and unwavering support. Together, we stand by our new Ukrainian neighbors as they embark on their journey to rebuild and start anew in Austin.
