<div><strong>11/27/1997</strong> - The day I won the lottery. Many of you know, but for those who don’t, I was adopted from Moscow, Russia at 18 months old.

<div>If you want to know more about my story, please reach out at any time. I’m happy to share with anyone. But my story is not important right now.
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>The story of 100,000 Ukrainian Orphans is what’s important. The unwritten story for so many children who are waiting on their winning lottery ticket for a chance at life, a family, and a future.
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>Since Russia invaded, Ukrainian adoptions to the US have been paused. Without means or money, orphanages are dependent on the help of churches and non-profits to escape Ukraine for safety.
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>My blood may be Russian, but my heart will always be American. I am ashamed of Russia’s actions. Please do not hold all Russians accountable for the actions of the government. I am proud and blessed to be an American, and a Texan.
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>I have decided to donate to Kidsave. You have my word that I have personally verified their credibility on IRS.gov and Charitynavigator.org. Their EIN number is 91-1887623 for your own reference. I created this GoFundMe to collect additional donations. 100% will go to Kidsave directly.
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>I will match friends and family donations to my GoFundMe up to $500. Don’t let that be the maximum, set it as the minimum.
</div>

<div> 
</div>

<div>Help save the Ukrainian Orphans. Donate and give the children that ticket to win their own lottery.
