About ENGin: ENGin is a global nonprofit organization that aims to connect Ukraine to the world in order to propel its postwar reconstruction and longer-term economic & social development. We’re doing this by pairing Ukrainian youth with English-speaking volunteers for English conversation practice and intercultural exchange. 

​

We’re achieving nationwide change through a bottom-up, personal approach deployed at an unprecedented scale. To date, we’ve paired nearly 40,000 young Ukrainians with English-speaking volunteers. We aim to create an entire generation of English-fluent, culturally competent Ukrainians ready to rebuild their nation.
