Welcome to the official fundraising campaign for the Ukrainian American Veterans (UAV) Post 32

This initiative is a heartfelt tribute to the courage, sacrifice, and legacy of Ukrainian Americans who have served in the United States Armed Forces, defending freedom and democracy for generations.
Ukrainian American Veterans Memorial
For decades, the Ukrainian American Veterans Chicago chapter has envisioned a memorial that celebrates the bravery of Americans of Ukrainian ancestry who have served our nation. Today, we are proud to bring this vision to life. The Ukrainian American Veterans Memorial will be located on the grounds of St. Andrew Ukrainian Orthodox Cathedral and Cemetery in Bloomingdale, Illinois, alongside the Holodomor and Heavenly Hundred Memorials. This meaningful location underscores the importance of honoring the past while inspiring future generations.
Our Goal: $75,000 to Build a Lasting Tribute
To bring this dream to fruition, we aim to raise $75,000. These funds will be dedicated to constructing a dignified monument and creating a serene space for reflection and remembrance. This memorial will not only honor the sacrifices of Ukrainian American soldiers but also provide solace for families, friends, and the broader community to commemorate their loved ones.
We need your support to make this vision a reality. Every donation, no matter the size, will have a profound impact. By contributing, you will play a vital role in honoring these heroes and ensuring their sacrifices are remembered for generations to come.
Please consider making a donation below to our campaign; UAV Post 32 Memorial Committee is a not-for-profit 501(c)3 (tax exempt) organization. Your generosity will help build a fitting tribute to those who served and protect their legacy for the future.
Together, we can ensure their legacy of service and sacrifice lives on forever. Thank you for your support.
