Lending Skills, Raising Funds
Julia Levites and Natalia Yamkovaya teamed to support Nova Ukraine, a San Francisco Bay Area-based nonprofit dedicated to providing humanitarian aid to those affected by the war. Using her skills in communications, resource management, and problem solving, Julia helped the small organization recruit new volunteers and improve its operations. Natalia channeled her love of animals as a volunteer for the group’s Animal Welfare team, providing food, evacuation, vaccination, and urgent medical procedures. Together, the duo also raised nearly $175,000 for the cause.
