We help Ukrainian refugee families in Tennessee survive the gap between arriving with nothing and becoming stable, self-sufficient, and settled.
We partner with organizations already doing this work well — United Help Ukraine, Bridge Refugee Services, Families First, and local churches — to provide housing support, job training, English language training, tutoring, transportation, and medical care.
Refugee families and their volunteer host families can apply directly to VFU for help with specific, urgent needs — medical bills, groceries, or educational expenses. Every dollar goes toward closing a real, immediate gap for a specific family.
VFU's support isn't intended to be long-term. It's meant to help families bridge the gap while they pursue stable income and the resources they're qualified and eligible for — giving them a measure of stability as they establish themselves in their new lives.
