Since launching in early 2020, ENGin <\/strong>has had one central mission: changing both individual lives and an entire nation through the power of conversation. We connect Ukrainians with volunteers worldwide for online English-language conversation practice, creating a safe, authentic space for them to break the language barrier, discover a new culture, and find emotional support. One match at a time, we facilitate mutually beneficial relationships between students and volunteers, creating a virtuous cycle of growth and understanding. And by doing this at an unprecedented scale, we help Ukraine connect with the global community, driving economic and social development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the news out of Ukraine growing ever bleaker, we find comfort in the community we’ve built at ENGin, Together, we’ve created a safe virtual space for authentic connection, like a little island in the storm where our students can find solace and support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As our island grows bigger and bigger, engaging more Ukrainians and volunteer conversation partners, we’re excited that the quality of the program remains high. We can see this in our program data – here are just four of our favorite statistics:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
