Statement from the Chairman of the Board
Yuriy Gorodnichenko
Dear Friends and Supporters of Kyiv-Mohyla Academy,
We are living through an unprecedented time that challenged the health of all of us, impacting our families and the students and faculty of National University “Kyiv-Mohyla Academy”.
While the university was closed for the entire academic year of the pandemic, Kyiv-Mohyla Academy rose to the challenge. The faculty and administration assisted their students, and the educational and research process continued in digital format. The response has been uplifting.
On behalf of the Kyiv-Mohyla Foundation of America, and as chairman of the board, my sincere gratitude to all the faculty members and administration, and to all donors whose support enabled a successful transition to a new year. Such donations and personal commitment will continue to change the lives of generations to come.
Our commitment at Kyiv-Mohyla Foundation is to support Kyiv-Mohyla Academy in its mission to prepare leaders for Ukraine through excellence in teaching, innovative research, and the personal and intellectual growth of its students, in an academic community that promotes ethical values and traditions of freedom and dignity of each individual.
As an agent of change, the university continues its role in leading reforms in higher education and promoting change that will sustain Ukraine’s national and territorial security through rule of law and economic growth as a European nation.
The funds that you as donors provide through your support have an impact on nearly every facet of university life, including scholarships, faculty fellowships, research, and facilities across the campus. In addition, if you leave a testamentary gift or an endowment, your gift will impact future generations in perpetuity.
Thanks to your support, the university has grown, programs and institutes are acclaimed for their excellence, and Kyiv-Mohyla Academy shapes generations dedicated to the values that will sustain Ukraine in the future as a European nation. Thank you for all your support.
Sincerely,
Yuriy Gorodnichenko, PhD
Chairman of the Board
