Hello everyone,

My name is Alina Nikitina, and I am reaching out with a heavy heart to ask for help for my family in Lviv, Ukraine.

Today, their apartment was severely damaged after being hit by two Shahed drones. This sudden attack has left them without a safe place to live and in urgent need of support.

One of my close relatives, Yuri Pirig, was seriously injured during the explosion. A large piece of debris became lodged in his lung, and he had to undergo emergency surgery. He is now in the intensive care unit (ICU), and his condition remains serious.

Thankfully, my aunt, Tetiana Pirig, her daughters Nata and Oksana (who are like sisters to me), and grandmother Nadia were incredibly lucky to survive without physical injuries. However, they have lost many essential belongings, and their home has been heavily damaged.

We are raising funds to help cover:

• Emergency medical expenses and recovery care

• Basic needs such as clothing and daily essentials

• Repairs and restoration of their apartment

Any support, no matter how small, would mean a lot to our family during this difficult time. If you are unable to donate, please consider sharing this campaign.

Thank you for your kindness, support, and prayers.
