Ken Ward
Ken Ward, a Rome, Georgia resident who first visited Ukraine in 1994, has joined forces with Helping Ukraine US to hand-deliver critical supplies and hope throughout the war-torn region of Ukraine.
Ken left for Ukraine after the new year and has been one of only a handful of humanitarian missions on the ground in Ukraine. He and his small team are visiting villages and towns, including those directly on the frontlines, delivering much-needed blankets, stoves and generators to the people of Ukraine who continue to endure a prolonged war in harsh winter conditions. In many regions, Ukrainians have limited or no electricity, unimaginable living conditions, and a constant threat of destruction.

About Us
As a longtime Rotarian and Atlanta businessman, I was moved to service after seeing images, media coverage and hearing stories of the needs of the Ukrainian people. Through my connections, I was able to help elevate an effort that had begun with local Rotary clubs to send surgical and medical supplies, food and other goods. In June, I traveled to Ukraine and hand-delivered much needed supplies and also deepened my connections with Rotary Clubs throughout the country. Upon my return in July, I was moved to do more and launched Helping Ukraine US.

ATLANTA JOURNAL CONSTITUTION: OPINION: ATLANTANS ACTIVELY HELPING UKRAINE, BUT MORE IS NEEDED
You can read my initial thoughts in this Atlanta Journal-Constitution op-ed,
but I was truly unable to imagine the enormity of the need until I found myself walking through the wreckage of centuries-old communities, now leveled to rubble. The pain on the faces of the dispossessed, the desperate cries of children calling out for the return of a parent who will never find their way home, those are the memories I will never forget, and perhaps should not.
In a world captivated by 60-second TikToks and breaking news banners, we all too often distract ourselves with the noise of the day rather than the cause of the century…
