What does the sentence Я роблю добро mean in English?
It translates literally as "I do good." This means that the speaker performs good deeds or acts in a kind, beneficial way.

Although Ukrainian verbs have endings that indicate the subject, using Я adds clarity and emphasis—especially useful for language learners or when contrasting with other subjects.
How is the verb роблю formed from the infinitive робити?
Роблю is the first person singular present tense form of робити (to do). Its ending -лю comes from an irregular conjugation pattern common in Ukrainian verbs.

Добро is a neuter noun that means “good” in the sense of good deeds or moral virtue. Here it implies that the speaker engages in actions that benefit others.
Can the word order be changed in this sentence without altering the meaning?
