Every Ukrainian must contribute to this terrible struggle no matter where they are or what they do now. It is our duty. We help refugees and displaced persons, pensioners and veterans, families with many children, special services, and the military. Of course, it is physically impossible to cover the entire country, but we are making every effort for our speedy victory and peace. National unity and compassion are what separate Ukrainians from all other nations. We work with people directly, providing temporary housing and meals, opening an educational center for children, distributing meals and food packages, organizing trips for children, and providing resources and information.

 

Together we can do everything. After all, Ukraine is our home. –Tanya Polsky
