Mission
Razom, inc. (razom u.s.), which means "together" in ukrainian, was formed in 2014 to support human rights and democracy in ukraine through programs in humanitarian aid, education, culture, and civic society. razom is dedicated to upholding the principles of the revolution of dignity (maidan) and actively contributing to the establishment of a secure, democratic, and prosperous ukraine. razom focuses unwaveringly on priority needs in ukraine and on opportunities to amplify voices from ukraine in conversations in the united states.
What they do
Razom culture we supported ukrainian cinema with multiple screenings of the documentary 'the earth is blue as an orange', including at the 2020 sundance film festival (where it won the world documentary directing award). we celebrated ukrainian music by hosting the inaugural ukrainian contemporary music festival, a three-day event that included three concerts and numerous speakers. the shutdown in 2020 pushed us to think up new ways to bring our community together around ukrainian culture. in the summer we hosted an online event to celebrate crimean flag day. in september, we carefully hosted an in-person, outdoor mini film festival, kino na dakhu. over two evenings, we showed three ukrainian films on the roof of st. george's academy.
Razom partners: two of razom partners organizations, building ukraine together (bur) and serhiy zhadan charitable foundation partnered to rebuild a school library in myronivske in the luhansk region. the children of this post-industrial town near the frontlines needed a space to gather, play, and hang out. bur rallied the local community to create such a space in the school library. the space has been fully renovated and furnished, supplied with high-speed internet, and stacked with hundreds of new books. bur also constructed civic spaces in other villages in ukraine as part of their volunteer camps throughout the summer of 2020.
Veteran's education. bohdan radchenko stipend for veterans provides highly motivated and accomplished ukrainian veterans with a possibility to gain a master's degree in the specialization of their choice. the most popular field of study for veterans has proved to be public administration. as of 2020, we have 17 stipend recipients (including 6 graduates). six new veterans embarked on their master's degrees at the ukrainian catholic university, the kyiv school of economics, and the kyiv-mohyla academy (all top-tier educational institutions in ukraine.) four veterans graduated in 2020, while 5 more are in their second year of courses for their master's degrees.
