Program Highlight: Ukraine Unbroken
Saturday, March 2 at 6 p.m.
February 2024 marks the 10th anniversary of the Russian occupation of Crimea and the 2nd anniversary of the all-out Russian invasion of Ukraine. Tatiana Terdal, a member of the Advisory Board of the Ukrainian Foundation, will share her experience of living and teaching in Ukraine, visiting the Mercy Corps office in Severodonetsk (now under Russian occupation) in 2016 and Lviv in the summer of 2023.
Hear why Tatiana, together with millions of other Ukrainian Americans, believes in Ukraine, its victory, and its democratic future.
Speaker Tatiana Terdal is a native of Ternopil, Ukraine, and grew up in Cherkasy, the central part of the country that is currently under siege by military forces. She is a prominent figure in the Ukrainian community in Portland. With a master's degree in economics and international development from Yale, she is known for her dedication and activism to Ukrainian causes. From organizing rallies to facilitating aid connections during the 2014 invasion, Terdal continues to lead the local community.
