Ukraine. Odesa. Chornomorets Stadium. 2024. This photo will stay in our hearts for many years. Thank you to everyone who joined us for this special event. We appreciate the American delegation for their bravery and support. Special thanks to our Ukrainian team for such a warm welcome. ℹ️ℹ️ℹ️ In early August, Chornomorets Stadium and the SeaSters club had the privilege of welcoming U.S. Congress members, including Celeste Maloy from Utah and Donald Norcross from New Jersey, as well as the team from the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS). 💬 Congressman Donald Norcross commented: "I see these young ladies mentoring the next generation of Olympic champions, we hope. Why is this important? Because they are striving to restore their world to normalcy, aiming to reintroduce a sense of normality into the lives of children. Through play, competition, and fun, they try to let them be kids again." 💬 Mikhail Trubchik added: "This visit sends a powerful message of ongoing support for Ukraine and shows the importance of our women's football projects. These initiatives do more than just teach sports; they provide crucial mental support and opportunities for children affected by the war. We are deeply grateful for such strong support." Our projects supporting and developing children’s and women’s football in Ukraine have garnered significant attention. Our players invited the American guests to a SeaSters match following Ukraine's victory! Special thanks to Pavlo Unguryan for his assistance and coordination. Many thanks to our important supporters of Logistics Plus Inc., and a special thank you to Derek Berlin.

In this photo, the SeaSters football team shelters from a missile attack, waiting for the danger to pass so they can continue their match. These and other powerful photos will soon be showcased in Sacramento. We invite you to experience 'The SeaSters: An Exhibition of Strength and Hope', where you’ll discover the inspiring stories of the SeaSters, a women’s football team founded in Odesa, Ukraine, at the height of the war. 📅 August 24, 2024 🕒 7:00 PM - 9:00 PM 📍Sacramento Capitol, Sacramento, California This exhibition is part of the Ukrainian American House celebration of Ukraine’s Independence Day.
