Help a Ukrainian family
Donation protected
My name is Yuliya Volkhonovych. I am a Ukrainian-born American citizen. My cousin Olga Chigidina, and her family fled from the bombing in Odessa, Ukraine fearing for their safety. Olga, her 7 yo daughter Kira, 14 yo old daughter Masha, and 16 yo son Vanya are now refugees in the city of Torun, Poland. Olga is a single mom. They were unable to secure a free apartment and financial assistance in Torun because there are so many refugees there. They are currently living in temprary housing. Olga found a suitable apartment for her and the kids but the owner is asking for a (discounted) price of 750 Euros (approx. $ 830) per month starting on April 1. The family also needs to buy their food daily. Olga doesn't have funds. She is looking for a job, but it has been challenging to find one so far. I am asking my friends to help cover her expenses. We don't know how long they will stay in Poland, but if we can help her with at least one month rent and some money for food it is going to be a great relief for her.
