In 2014, after having been at Maidan, Jonas Öhman, a former Swedish special-operations soldier, democracy activist and humanitarian, founded Blue/Yellow for Ukraine in Lithuania in response to the Russian aggression against Ukraine in Crimea and Donbas, and began providing concrete help to the Ukrainian regions that were invaded by Russia, finding himself and his team on the front lines. He and Blue/Yellow for Ukraine Lithuania have received numerous awards and recognition for their work in Ukraine as a Ukrainian support organization.
At Jonas Öhman’s request, Blue/Yellow USA, a US registered 501(c)(3), was founded in 2019; both are legally and financially separate organizations with each being self-funding.
Although independent, he two organizations cooperate in several areas, related to Ukraine. They also support various independent initiatives. Blue/Yellow Lithuania and Blue/Yellow USA work for a common cause, towards the exact same goal, sometimes together, sometimes separately. By supporting either or both organizations you are contributing to the cause of Ukraine and its victory.
Blue/Yellow USA’s skilled team combining military, logistics, medical, business, and leadership experience enables rapid mobilization and response in the procurement and provision of medical, non-lethal and humanitarian aid to Ukraine’s crisis and war zones, logistical and supply networks, various training programs, and strategic planning. Our work also includes advocacy in Congress, community outreach, and education regarding all aspects of Russia’s war against Ukraine. We are a member of the American Coalition for Ukraine and have worked with Congress and with other organizations, most recently the Helsinki Commission, the Atlantic Council, and the American Foreign Policy Council. Additionally our medic team provides medical care, training, and aid.
