Our Mission

At Hromada, our mission is to unite, support, and empower the Ukrainian-American community through education, culture, charity, and active engagement.

News & Community Initiatives

Since 2017, we have published Hromada, the first Ukrainian-language newspaper on the U.S. West Coast. In 2024, we launched an English version to reach a wider audience.

Charitable Activities

Hromada leads wide-reaching charitable efforts through the "Anhelyk" Foundation, established to support children whose parents died defending Ukraine.

Hromada Newspaper

First published in December 2017, the Hromada newspaper remains a vital voice for the Ukrainian-American community. As the only Ukrainian-language print publication on the West Coast of the United States, it serves as a platform for news, culture, education, and charitable initiatives that reflect Ukrainian heritage and strengthen community bonds.

In addition to the monthly print edition in Ukrainian, Hromada also offers an English-language digital version to ensure accessibility and engagement for a wider audience across the diaspora. Each issue features stories, commentary, and insights that inform and inspire readers while preserving the voices and values of Ukrainians in America and beyond.

You can subscribe to the Hromada newspaper by signing up on our website to receive the latest editions directly to your inbox.

April. Negotiations and terror

Vitaliy Portnykov

The brief meeting between Presidents Trump and Zelenskyy in Rome marked a symbolic moment in the stalled U.S.–Russia–Ukraine negotiations. As Trump grows skeptical of Putin’s intentions, the article explores how Moscow manipulates the dialogue for strategic gain—both in Ukraine and beyond. Against the backdrop of rising civilian casualties and deepening terror, the piece warns that the future of the international order depends on the West’s willingness to confront aggression, not accommodate it.

In the epicenter of defining battles

Nadia Banchik

The United States is teetering on the brink of a constitutional crisis: the introduction of draconian tariffs, mass deportations, undermining of the judicial system, and attempts to destroy the balance of power indicate a dangerous drift toward a hybrid regime. Ukraine is at the center of this global turning point, becoming not only a victim of Russian aggression, but also a bargaining chip in the West's great game for a new world order.
