August Mission last month led a trade mission to Ukraine, where it connected a delegation of over 30 Utahns with the ambassador of Ukraine to the US and other Ukrainian institutions trying to help the Ukrainian people.

was founded by Bruce Roberts in 2021 after the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan. Roberts, a veteran, said that the idea for the mission came to him after he had a "feeling that we had failed to live up to some of our commitments there."

Now, with more trips to Ukraine under its belt and a bigger team, the mission has a more focused idea about how it can best assist Ukraine and its residents. Ukraine is looking for solutions. They obviously want to thrive as a country, they obviously want to provide security and, kind of, long-term solutions for the people, and having the Utah businesses go out and really being able to provide some of those solutions, working together, is huge.Fowler said that August Mission didn't want to take a Band-Aid approach to a crisis that was impacting the lives of millions of people, but wanted to instead focus on long-term solutions.

While last month's mission laid the groundwork for collaboration between Ukraine and the Beehive State, Fowler said that the real work still has to be done — something that will be accomplished through more specific trade missions in the future, adding that the last trade mission was the "first of many."
