Steven E. Moore
Founder
Steven Moore is a former chief of staff in the U.S. House of Representatives who has been in Ukraine most of the time since day 5 of the war.
His NGO, the Ukraine Freedom Project (UFP), started as a humanitarian organization. Since March of 2022, UFP has delivered some 250 tons of food to areas impacted by the war, supplied dozens of hospitals with medical supplies, helped put thousands of pieces of body armor on Ukrainians and delivered Starlinks, drones, generators, and other aid to areas near the front. Moore has been to the front a dozen times.
With his years of experience on Capitol Hill, Moore has also become a trusted source of information to members of Congress and their staff. In addition to humanitarian work, the Ukraine Freedom Project provides firsthand, data-driven information to policymakers and the media about the situation in Ukraine.
The Russians have taken note of Moore’s effectiveness in Ukraine and placed him on their hit list of foreign combatants.
