My name is Alexander Rivkin, and I'm a physician in Los Angeles. I was born in Odessa, Ukraine and my family emigrated to this country in 1975. The culture and spirit of Odessa forms a big part of who I am. I am astounded and horrified by the carnage that the tyrant Vladimir Putin has unleashed upon the innocent people of Ukraine. As a physician, I am trying to leverage my ability to procure essential medical supplies and get them to where they are most needed through a network of trusted European and Ukranian physicians. So far I have been using my own funds, but I want to expand this effort and decided that outside funding would be essential. Anything you can do will help save lives. Thank you very much!
