Rudenko will share stories and photographs from her recent trip to Eastern Ukraine, where she visited villages directly impacted by the war. The evening will conclude with a discussion on Ukraine, Russia, and the nonprofit sector—exploring how grassroots organizations support communities and fill critical gaps in assistance.
