Partners
The community organizations, institutions and charity partners who stand behind UAFest — not a paid tier, but a shared purpose.
Built alongside our community
UAFest is organized by the Ukrainian Community of Lanark County, a volunteer-run non-profit, with support from community partners. It runs on neighbours giving their time, and those relationships are what keep the festival volunteer-run and community-first, year after year.
A new charity partner every year
A share of every festival's proceeds goes to a charity partner supporting Ukrainian children and families affected by the war.
Where UAFest's work fits
UAFest's programming touches a few broad categories that community and grant-making organizations often support. Named funders and specific grant partnerships will be announced here as they're confirmed.

Partners — FAQ
Sponsors support UAFest through a paid tier — from Community Partner up to Title sponsorship — with benefits like logo placement, a vendor booth, or stage mentions. Partners are the non-transactional side of that relationship: community organizations, institutions and charities that UAFest works alongside without a paid package. See our Sponsors page for tier details.
UAFest is organized by the Ukrainian Community of Lanark County, a volunteer-run non-profit, together with organizing partners LifeCapital Global, MarketingMIX and Alice Boutique.
UAFest has supported a different charity partner each year: Rotary for Kids of Heroes in 2023 (Christmas gifts for 50 children in the Kharkiv region), Save Ukraine in 2024, and Kids of Ukraine since 2025, continuing as our 2026 charity partner.
