Partners in Mission

Many partners. One shared commitment to Ukraine.

Partners in Mission contribute prayer, resources, and expertise.
Our Ukrainian-based education and ministries are strengthened by our Partners in Mission who believe in equipping local leaders, caring for communities, and building healthy churches. UPF is grateful for the foundations, churches, seminaries, and mission organizations that contribute financial support, prayer, training, connections, and other critical resources to the work.

Why Partnership Matters

Partner support builds local capacity.

The ministries UPF supports are led by Ukrainians who understand the challenges facing their communities, culture, and churches.

Our Partners in Mission contribute resources, experience, and specialized knowledge that Ukrainian education and ministry teams can use on the ground to meet local priorities.

This support provides both immediate assistance and contributes to lasting change: equipped leaders, effective organizations, healthy churches, and stronger communities with a greater capacity to serve long into the future.
