Avant Chief Strategy Officer Speaks Out

Alex Danyluk, Avant‘s chief strategy officer, posted on LinkedIn about how people can help Ukrainians during this crisis. He was born in the United States and his parents were Ukrainian emigrants who fled Soviet Ukraine during World War II.

“A few of my Ukrainian friends and family, also born in the U.S., have returned to their ancestral Ukrainian to establish lives and businesses,” he said. “Some have successfully fled Ukraine, history repeating a generation later, some are still in transit, others are staying. My 92-year-old mother, who fled Soviet Ukraine in her teen years, told me she sees herself on TV in the faces of the refugees now fleeing Ukraine, holding back tears.”

Danyluk also shared his friend Damian Handzy’s post offering ways to help Ukraine.
