American country singer/songwriter Brad Paisley has been named an ambassador for United24, an initiative launched by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to help with the restoration of Ukraine.

Paisley commented 'I am not alone in wanting to help Ukraine. But like a lot of people in America, until now I haven’t been sure exactly how to lend a hand from over here in the US. I count myself very lucky to have been given a platform that will allow me to do that very thing. I’m focusing my efforts on helping Ukrainian families rebuild and return to their homes'.
