SUPPORT FOR MEDIA AND CIVIL SOCIETY
THE UKRAINIAN MEDIA AND SOCIETY FUND
The Ukrainian Media and Society Fund (UMSF) is our dedicated crisis-response initiative designed to deliver urgent institutional and project-based financial support to independent media and civil society organizations during the war. Operating as a streamlined intermediary, the Fund directly bridges the gap between international donors and local newsrooms to keep Ukraine’s information space resilient against critical resource shortages and hostile propaganda.
