We are deeply grateful to everyone who has supported Ukraine Front Line and the people we assist in Ukraine. If you choose to withdraw your support because of this, we understand, and we thank you for coming this far with us. 12/13

If you choose to continue supporting us when the time comes, we thank you for that, too. 13/13

This does not mean that Ukraine Front Line is shutting down. Too many people rely on us; we cannot turn our backs on them. We are merely on hold while we resolve this problem and find the path forward. 10/13

For the teams we support, existing operations and previously arranged assistance will continue wherever legally and financially possible. For donors, we will provide updates along the way, including the reinstatement status and guidance on tax implications for your 2026 filings. 11/13

We are taking steps to strengthen our compliance controls, including Board-level oversight of filings and consultation with an external compliance expert, so that this cannot happen again. 8/13

The only responsible course of action now is to pause accepting new donations until this is resolved. This is a precautionary measure intended to protect both you, our donors, and the organization while the tax implications are clarified. 9/13

Our priority now is to correct the situation responsibly, protect our donors, and ensure that we remain fully compliant going forward. We are seeking retroactive reinstatement, and have hired a professional to guide us through the process. It is expected to take 6-10 months. 6/13

Our president, Robin Rohrback, is paying the professional’s fees herself. Your donation money is meant to support Ukraine’s defenders, not correct a past Board’s mistake. 7/13

The revocation was posted to the IRS’s Auto-Revocation List on August 11, 2026. UFL has not yet received the IRS notification; we only found out through an email from YourCause that went to a spam folder. 4/13

The current Board did not create this issue. It was inherited from prior leadership and only became apparent when the current Board reviewed our compliance status following questions about YourCause donations. 5/13

On Saturday, September 19, Ukraine Front Line (UFL) discovered an administrative compliance issue relating to IRS 990 filings from a previous Board term. As a result of this issue, UFL’s federal 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status was revoked on May 15, 2026. 2/13

It is important to note that this revocation was automatic and strictly administrative. It is not the result of any finding of financial misconduct, misuse of donor funds, or any problem with our work. 3/13

@rimamedua.bsky.social mentioned recently that she had 80 new recruits coming & had to figure out how to get 80 CATs for them. She wasn't asking; it was just a fact she was stating. Happily, thanks to your donations, we had enough for her on hand. Problem solved! She got them the other day. 1/2

Last month, an ambulance belonging to a Khyzhak Brigade medical unit was hit & gutted. Thankfully, no one was hurt. We set aside $2K for them & dedicated a weekly raffle to them. The end result was about $6500 to go toward getting them back on their feet. Or wheels. You know what we mean. 1/3

16 Sept

$1580.26 restocked their medicine cabinet, as pictured here. $1572.58 went to an oxygen concentrator, which should be reaching them this week. We'll let you know what they do with the remaining $3400. Thank you for helping them get back to work. 2/3

The Before picture. 3/3

It represents literal years of support by you through UFL to the soldiers defending Ukraine. Each patch is a legacy of faith and hope that you have provided to a people that continue to tell us that they are ever-thankful for that help. 3/4

These patches are love, encouragement, determination, gratitude, and Ukrainian ferocity made manifest. 4/4

We've started getting photo reports from the teams who received the tacmed you sent Robin with last month. Here's a particularly lovely thank you from a soldier with the 60th. The boots and medic bag are in the frame because you provided those, too, a few months back. Thank you. 🫶

He wants you to know two things: 1. Not everything is shown here because some of it has already gone into the IFAKs of guys who are on a mission now. 2. He is not in a recon team with the 60th. He is VERY adamant that you know that.
