outcomes, all while staying true to ourselves and being guided by Ukrainians themselves.
Bravely Be Better – You understand and recognize the gaps in the current system and aren’t afraid to
serve the customers in a better way, no matter what it takes, while being a team player in a larger
resettlement effort.
Be Human Centered – You will work to keep Ukrainian families at the center of all that we do, and keep
yourself and the team accountable to the human-centeredness of our activities.
Do the Doable – The mountain can feel big, but you know success can come in small ways, and will lead
the team to have a “doing the doable” spirit.

constant, which means your curiosity to learn is matched with adaptability to evolve.
