Ukraine has been running its marathon for freedom and democracy for more than a year.
We run as a Nova Ukraine team to help Ukrainians on their way.

On Sunday, May 21th, our team of 16 runners will start the Bay to Breakers run in the Embarcadero neighborhood by the San Francisco Bay, and run through nine of the city’s most notable neighborhoods – all the way to the Great Highway, where the breakers crash into Ocean Beach.

We want to turn every step into helping to restore destroyed schools in Ukrainian cities and villages. We are running to raise funds for the savED project. Our goal is to collect $16,000.

savED is an international charitable foundation that restores access to education in Ukrainian communities which suffered from the war. 

What they do:

  • Restore damaged schools
  • Arrange shelters
  • Open digital learning centers in UA communities
  • Help school to attract funds for their reconstruction and developmenProvide technical assessment of infrastructural damages.

Why restore schools now?

School is a place where we can give back to children their right to education, to learn and explore new things so that they grow up happy and conscious, making a change for Ukraine and the World.

Donate. Impact. Change.

Solar panels installed to power a water tower, helping provide water to four villages in Ukraine’s Mykolaiv region during power outages. Russia continues to target critical infrastructure across Ukraine. On October 29, a Russian drone struck a crowded railway platform in Dnipro, killing at least 14 people and injuring others. Ukraine's railways are the country's circulatory system: connecting communities, carrying families to safety, and keeping essential supplies and humanitarian aid flowing. They keep the country moving, even as Russia's attacks threaten these vital connections. On November 4, Ukraine marks Railway Workers' Day. To Ukraine's iron people, Ambassador Erin E. McKee delivered this message: Thank you for keeping Ukraine moving.

How Yale Training Is Helping Ukrainian Doctors Treat War-Related Trauma

One year after training at Yale, Ukrainian physicians are applying new approaches to mental health and pain care and sharing their knowledge with colleagues at home. How do you treat insomnia when sedating medication may not be the best option, because ongoing air raids require a person to be able to wake quickly and get to safety? Dr. Olena Nikolenko, a psychiatrist and psychotherapist at Ukrainian Mental Clinic, working with anxiety and depressive disorders, PTSD, OCD, addictions, and chronic pain, says that sleep became a particularly important area in the context of the war. Considering the specific challenges presented by recurrent threats, she wanted to expand her knowledge of non-pharmacological approaches to sleep management and learn additional ways of supporting patients living under prolonged and unpredictable stress. Her interest brought her to the observership at Yale School of Medicine and Yale New Haven Hospital, organized by Doctors United for Ukraine in partnership with Nova Ukraine and supported by Yale’s World Partnership Fund. In October 2025, Nova Ukraine sponsored two Ukrainian physicians, Dr. Olena Nikolenko and Dr. Maksym Tkachuk, selected to participate in a four-week program, IMPACT-UA (Improving Pain Management and Mental Health Treatment in Conflict Territories: Ukraine).
