How Do I Join FRIENDS OF UKRAINE?

The National Peace Corps Association (NPCA) lets Friends of Ukraine (FOU) use http://rpcv.org to sign up FOU members, which allows FOU to use your entire membership fee for our causes, such as the current $500 grant to Riverland Community College (RCC) for the "Virtual Sisters" of Ukraine (SOU) websites design project. You do not have to be a Peace Corps Volunteer to use this service; you do not have to join the NPCA. Follow the instructions below and remember If you ended your Peace Corps service within the past 12 months you can join NPCA, Friends of Ukraine and many other NPCA-affiliated area organizations for FREE. Yes, 100% free.  Also, current Pre-Service Trainees, Peace Corps Volunteers, and participants in any current projects (such as RCC's SOU project) sponsored by grants from Friends of Ukraine are welcome to join free-of-charge by clicking on:
