About Olga's List
MISSION
Olga's List helps refugees displaced by the Russian invasion of Ukraine in urgent need of assistance. We focus on new arrivals in Massachusetts.
We are staffed primarily by volunteers, many of whom are refugees themselves and who speak Ukrainian. Our volunteers provide assistance to new refugees and connect them to available resources.
​
We are funded by a grant from the the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR); and by private donations. Please help.

About olga
My name is Olga Yulikova.
As a former refugee, I know how hard it is to be one.
​
When the war began, I started organizing the collection of basic necessities to meet the needs of refugees arriving in Massachusetts. I also managed the logistics of getting those supplies into the war zones of Ukraine. In the summer of 2022 I went to Europe to help disabled Ukrainian refugees. I'll be going again this summer.
​
I founded Olga's List and recruited volunteers in order to continue and expand the early success I had in at home in Massachusetts.
We still need more help. Please donate or volunteer today.
