OUR PROGRAMS
Below is a brief summary of the ways we are helping. Click on each program to learn more.|
CULTURAL LIFE
 Music, Food, Art and Dance. Our heritage is diverse and colorful. We proudly support a variety of cultural programs including Yarmarka: our annual celebration of Slavic culture. We provide opportunities for established and emerging Russian musicians to showcase their talents, host readings by up-and-coming Russian-American writers and help children connect to their roots through traditional Russian activities. We love to share our culture with those unfamiliar with it and provide opportunities for immigrants to rediscover their history. Learn more about cultural life SOCIAL AID
 We connect Russian-speaking providers with clients, help immigrants find jobs, navigate bureaucracy, and much more. Washington State is home to a large concentration of Russian speakers from many Republics of the former Soviet Union including: the Russian Federation, Ukraine, Armenia, Georgia and more. Finding information and receiving needed assistance can be overwhelming and often confusing for those unfamiliar with the language and custom of a new country. We offer assistance in any way we can, from help filling out documents to our ambitious economic development project for Russian businesses. Learn more about social aid |

 The future rests upon the shoulders of our children. We will make the world a more tolerant and compassionate place by teaching our youth to value their diversity and celebrate their similarities. Learn more about education programs |
