On February 21, 2025, the charity gala "NYC Freedom Gala for Ukraine" was held at the Oceana Theatre in Brooklyn to mark this difficult anniversary and raise funds for the treatment and rehabilitation of wounded Ukrainian children. The event was organized by the non-profit organization Heart & Valor in cooperation with Freedom FM Radio. The Consulate General of the Czech Republic in New York has been a long-standing partner of this initiative.

The cultural program included performances by Ukrainian dancers, opera singers, and pop and rock musicians, who expressed their solidarity with Ukraine through their participation. Speakers included Eli Zhadanov, founder of the Heart & Valor Foundation, while the evening was hosted by New York State Assemblyman Michael Novakhov. The Czech Republic was honored at the event with the Heart & Valor Freedom Award and received recognition from the New York State Assembly for its unwavering support of Ukraine’s fight for freedom.

On the third anniversary of the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine, February 24, 2025, a photo exhibition accompanied by a concert took place at the Bohemian National Hall in Manhattan. The event was co-hosted by the Consulate General of the Czech Republic in New York and the Consulate General of Ukraine in New York. Guests included members of the diplomatic corps and prominent representatives of the Czech and Ukrainian communities.

The exhibition, called REVERBERATION, presented works by ten contemporary Ukrainian artists reflecting on the impact of the war. The curator of the event was Olena Speranska, and the musical accompaniment was provided by opera singer Angelina Stati. The exhibition showcased graphic artworks and documentary photographs portraying the stories of children from occupied territories who had been through re-education camps and were adopted into Russian families. Special attention was given to the theme of memory and its representation through art.
