Join this roundtable discussion on how philanthropy can support the ongoing and widespread relief, recovery, and rebuilding efforts as a result of Russia's war on Ukraine.

Since February 24, 2022, hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians affected by the Russian war have sought safety in Canada and the United States.  The fourth funder-only roundtable series will focus on how Canadian and U.S. governments, alongside private and community foundations, have welcomed and supported the arrival of Ukrainians, helped them access various newly-developed programs and services, and fostered their integration and contribution to Canadian and U.S. communities.  Participants will learn about ways to set up similar initiatives as well as aid Ukrainians that are returning home.
