Hi, my name is Sam Watson. I'm Ukrainian-American. My grandparents fled Ukraine during Stalin's famine and genocide. They left behind everything they had and everyone they knew in order to make it out alive. They fled to Germany and unfortunately ended up in labor camps during WWII. After that ordeal, they finally arrived in America as refugees.

Well, war and genocide have come to Ukraine, again. And I still have a large amount of family over there spread out in the west and the east. I've been in contact with some of them during Russia's war and have sought to help them make it through any way I can. So here I am raising funds so that I can put together a care package for one of my cousins and her family that are still in Lviv, Ukraine. She reached out to me and asked for anything that may help them. Lviv has already been under attack by Russian missiles. Thankfully my family there has not been harmed, but there appears to be no end to this horrific war any time soon.

So I am asking for any donations that will go directly toward the items I am purchasing for the care package (vests, emergency kits, tactical gear, medicine) and the shipping costs (I am using MEEST to ship the package directly to them in Lviv). Anything you may give will help a ton.

Thank you so much for your time. Slava Ukraini.
