OUR MISSION

Every bowl of borscht funds something real — here’s exactly what, year by year.

Why we do this

TOGETHER, WE DELIVER HOPE

Every bowl served, every ticket purchased, every sponsor, and every donation helps make a real difference. Through our partnership with HTX4Ukraine, the Borscht Cook-off supports humanitarian initiatives, medical aid, and life-saving equipment for the people of Ukraine.

Together, we’re preserving Ukrainian culture while creating meaningful impact where it’s needed most — and we track every dollar, so you always know exactly where it goes.
