The Ukrainian National Women's League of America (UNWLA) is a charitable and cultural organization that unites women of Ukrainian descent and affiliation. Established in 1945, the organization has launched numerous social welfare, cultural, and education projects, aiming to support the Ukrainian people in Ukraine and diasporas. It works independently as a charitable and cultural organization and has been granted a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status by the Internal Revenue Service.

Since February 2022, the UNWLA has shifted its focus to humanitarian aid operations in response to the Russian invasion of Ukraine. According to the recent DEMAC report, UNWLA raised approximately $750,000 for Ukrainian humanitarian aid within one month.[1] The organization continues fundraising and organising advocacy events to address the Russian invasion.
