Our next interview of AH Community Stories features Yuliia Tymoshenko, an influencer, volunteer, and FLEX’16 alumna. She told us how Ukrainians should spread the news about the war among the foreign audience, shared her experience of the first months of a full-scale invasion, and spoke about the importance of taking breaks.

A full-scale invasion happened when Ihor was living and working in Tokyo, Japan. Despite everything, Ihor has managed to stay calm and do as much as possible to help his nation. Read his story of resilience in our new interview.

This time we are sharing the story about another brave Ukrainian, Nina Bondar, America House Leadership Program alumna, who is currently participating in an internship with the European Parliament. Nina told us about her experience volunteering at Ukrainian Catholic University during the war, how she became a speaker at an event for young people in Germany, and shared the thoughts that keep her live on now.

This is the story of persistence and confidence of Mariia Shuvalova, Window to Success 2022 program participant and Fulbright alumna, who told us about the tactical boots that led her to fundraising, anatomical body armor for women and why Ukrainians will win.
