<div>Hi Friends,
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>For Spring Break this year, I traveled to the Polish border to assist in the grassroots effort to shelter, feed and transport Ukrainian refugee families in dire need of help. With your support, I was able to rent a van, deliver $1,000 in medical supplies, 100 sleeping bags, 30 suitcases, put 7 refugees families into hotel rooms, provide housing and baby supplies to an expectant mother whose husband was forced to stay behind, and I learned a lot about how volunteers can maximize their impact. I also reported on these efforts in three essays at World Politics Review - you can read them here:

</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>Since my return, I continue to receive requests for supplies, support and updates from the organizations I met while I was there. Two of them - KIK and HUMANOSH - are in great need of donations to support their work providing transport, medical, housing and psychosocial care to refugees and civilians on the Ukraine side of the border. In addition, the woman I worked with at the Warsaw train station needs of support for her ongoing work providing rooms to refugees. This page will remain open a little longer, to collect money to support these three specific ongoing efforts. If you trust me to get your money where it's most needed, please consider continuing to donate through this page, or watch for updates for stories of specific people you can help through this page, on a given week.<br /><br />
</div>

<div>Meanwhile, two announcements:
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>1) I will give a webinar at UMass on April 25 at 11:30am about my trip and how others can volunteer. <a href="https://www.umass.edu/sbs/calendar/event/promises-and-pitfalls-grassroots-humanitarianism-reflections-organized-chaos-ukraine"><a href="https://www.umass.edu/sbs/calendar/event/promises-and-pitfalls-grassroots-humanitarianism-reflections-organized-chaos-ukraine" target="_blank" class="" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://www.umass.edu/sbs/calendar/event/promises-and-pitfalls-grassroots-humanitarianism-reflections-organized-chaos-ukraine</a></a>
</div>

<div><br />2) I will be singing Brahms Requiem in honor of Ukraine with the Pioneer Valley Symphony Chorus on May 7.
</div>

<div><a href="https://www.pvsoc.org/?pgid=kt6nfmyf-f6bcb8e3-7528-4fee-b4e6-e003ce3b8fca"><a href="https://www.pvsoc.org/?pgid=kt6nfmyf-f6bcb8e3-7528-4fee-b4e6-e003ce3b8fca" target="_blank" class="" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://www.pvsoc.org/?pgid=kt6nfmyf-f6bcb8e3-7528-4fee-b4e6-e003ce3b8fca</a></a>
</div>

<div>Please come if you can, or sponsor my sing with a donation to this page if you cannot.
</div>

<div>All donations collected between now and May 8 will go to support local Polish NGOs.
</div>

<div>You can continue to follow my writings about Ukraine on Twitter @charlicarpenter and on Facebook.
