«Hromada» Media Platform
«Hromada» is a modern media platform that unites Ukrainians in the United States around shared values, news, meaningful stories, and humanitarian initiatives.
Originally launched in December 2017 as a Ukrainian-language print newspaper in San Francisco, CA, «Hromada» quickly became the Ukrainian voice of the West Coast. Over the years, it has grown from a local publication into a nationwide media platform. Today, it reaches readers across the entire United States, expanding its mission to connect and empower the Ukrainian community from coast to coast.
The mission of «Hromada» is to unite and support the Ukrainian community from coast to coast, preserving its voice, culture, and identity.

Anhelyk Initiative
«Hromada» also leads a charitable initiative known as the «Anhelyk» Foundation, dedicated to supporting children whose parents lost their lives in the russian-Ukrainian war. Founded in 2018, Anhelyk provides direct assistance to the children of fallen Ukrainian Heroes, offering care, hope, and meaningful recognition of their families’ sacrifice.
Each year, all donations and funds raised through our charitable events are used to send Christmas gifts, provide scholarships, and purchase medical supplies and equipment for these children across Ukraine. The initiative ensures they are not forgotten and helps bring moments of warmth and joy, especially during the holidays.
Join us in bringing comfort, support, and solidarity to the youngest victims of war.
