Social activities
In 2011–2015, she was the vice president of the Association of Investment Professionals, a non-governmental organisation that promotes the programmes of the American CFA Institute in Ukraine.
After taking an active part in the Revolution of Dignity, she worked on the creation of the first neoliberal association of Ukrainian entrepreneurs, which united 18 different Ukrainian entrepreneurs. On 19 April 2016, she co-founded the Union of Ukrainian Entrepreneurs (UUE) together with the founders of Nova Poshta, INTERTOP, Rozetka.ua, Three Bears and others.
In 2014–2016, she was the head of the working group on investments in Ukraine at the Ukrainian Venture Capital Association (UVCA).
In 2015–2016, she was a consultant on the programme for promoting Ukraine's interests and brand in the world at the NGO Foundation for Support of Reforms in Ukraine.
In 2016, she founded her first NGO, Actions First Foundation, which is currently working in the field of volunteer assistance to the Armed Forces of Ukraine. This organisation became the first NGO in Ukraine to open all its income and expenditure in all its bank accounts in real time.
In 2020, at the invitation of Mikheil Saakashvili, she became the executive director of the Office of Simple Solutions and Results, a non-governmental organisation that developed and implemented reforms in Ukraine. The organisation was active until October 2021.

Investigations
Tenders for the purchase of drums and vegetable cutters in Kyiv
In June 2023, the company exposed tenders in Kyiv for the purchase of vegetable cutters for bomb shelters for UAH 1.5 million (about UAH 131,000 per cutter), as well as for the purchase of 300 leather drums for shelters for UAH 900,000.
Tender for the construction of tennis courts
On 30 August 2023, Barabash posted on her Facebook page information about a UAH 300 million tender by an enterprise of the Ministry of Youth and Sports to renovate tennis courts during the war. According to Maria Barabash, "the Minister of Youth and Sports Vadym Gutzeit should cancel the procurement or resign". On 31 August, after the publicity, the tender was cancelled.
Tender of the State Enterprise "Forests of Ukraine"
Maria Barabash first disclosed information about a UAH 5 million tender for advertising and marketing services, which was won by a company linked to Rostyslav Shurma, former deputy head of the Office of the President of Ukraine Andriy Yermak. After the information was made public, the tender was cancelled.
Police report against Ihor Lachenkov and Roman Kravets
On 14 December 2024, Maria Barabash filed a police report against Ihor Lachenkov, whom she accused of making a death threat. According to her, Lachenkov bought the Warshal+ Telegram channel, which already has more than 200,000 subscribers, and began to post threats to anyone who somehow "crossed him". Barabash herself was accused of taking "money from the Russians" on this channel, and then a photo of the murdered Iryna Farion was published. The public figure blamed Lachenkov for all this and suggested that the blogger "take a public polygraph". According to Barabash, Lachenkov attacked her on social media after she published two posts harshly criticising Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Andriy Yermak. After the publication of Maria Barabash's investigation about the Joker Telegram channel, she also added Roman Kravets to the charges.
Exposing the activities of Roman Kravets
Maria Barabash investigated the activities of Roman Kravets, a pro-Russian propagandist and administrator of the Joker Telegram channel. She found out that Kravets earns $2 million a month. She also published screenshots of correspondence with the Joker, where Kravets claims that his Telegram channel is "a mafia, a business that kills and is backed by gangsters". In addition, the screenshots show that Kravets claimed that Monobank co-founder Oleg Gorokhovsky was helping well-known blogger and volunteer Igor Lachenkov, blogger Mykhailo Lebiha and singer Nadia Dorofeeva "launder money through Monobank".
