Help Ukrainian Refugees

Hi Friends. I’ve just arrived in Poland to bring essential supplies into Ukraine across the Polish border, while organizing the transport of 1500+ Ukrainian orphan refugees out of Ukraine and into Poland. Some of the kids are disabled and require extra care. Along side other organizations here, we are helping organize buses for transport and drivers as well as setting up a first response camp on the border of Ukraine and Poland to provide food, water, and warm clothing for refugees. We've bought chargers and battery banks and we need to buy more supplies including thermal underwear, emergency generators for the disabled children’s machinery, wheelchairs, diapers, baby wipes, baby food and children's books as well accommodations for mothers and children.

 

This situation is really overwhelming and there’s so much to do. I’ve set up this GoFundMe page so that you can help us buy these crucial items in Poland, which is the easiest way for us to get them directly to those in need. Please send what you can. All of your love and support is appreciated.
