My name is Natalia. I immigrated to New York from Ukraine 10 years ago. I am heartbroken to see my country attacked by Russia, its innocent people subjected to genocide, and our villages and cities destroyed. I am heartbroken and resolute to put an end to the suffering as soon as I possibly can.

My mom is in Lviv, a city near the border in western Ukraine. She is helping to organize the delivery of protective gear and other humanitarian aid donated from Swtizerland to Kyiv, Sumy, and other places under Russian siege. It costs $500 for fuel and food for a driver to make one trip across the country.

As the bombing continues and makes it impossible for the country to function, a new crisis of starvation is taking hold. Currently, cities in central and eastern Ukraine are running out of baby formula and pet food. We need to buy these supplies and add them to our delivery trucks.

If we don't save Ukraine, Putin will win, and we will be next.
