Kate Leschyshyn
Head of International Partnerships at Come Back Alive
After 12 years in corporate IT sales, she transitioned to the civil society sector. Focusing on Norway and the Nordic countries, Kate also represents the foundation in North America, Australia, and across Europe. She collaborates with foreign governmental bodies, civil society organizations, private businesses, local communities, and the Ukrainian diaspora — advocating for Ukraine and fundraising for the foundation’s defense projects. Kate sees herself as a bridge between Ukrainian defenders and the global community eager to support the Ukrainian cause.
