My name is Marina, I'm from Ukraine, but live in Ireland. I went to Ukraine with my son to visit my family and friends three days before war. We spent a week in my hometown - Kharkov - one of the most heavily bombed cities in Ukraine - sleeping in the hallway, and being ready not to wake up the next day. We left Kharkov after one especially gruesome night and spent a week getting to Dublin. I documented my story through short videos at instagram.com/marusidz

Kharkov is still being bombed every day, and every day local heroes deliver medicine and food to vulnerable people, they evacuate people from Kharkov to safer places, and they continue feeding animals in shelters.

I'm raising money to continue supporting them until Ukraine wins this atrocious war by directly funding the immediate needs of Kharkov citizens in the fastest way possible.

These local volunteers are small, but they regularly provide photos updates and receipts.

Thank you for your continuous support of Ukraine, together we will win!! Glory to Ukraine!!
