Hi! My name is Iryna Horbatenko and I am fundraising for my entire family back home in Ukraine. With the unprecedented times in Ukraine, my sister (Ekaterina Chabanenko), her husband (Alexander Chabanenko) and niece (Victoria Chabanenko) are unable to work and provide for themselves while trying to stay safe. 

On February 24th, my sister and her family got up and left their home in Odessa seeking for a safer place to stay for their child. They drove 9 hours to her husbands parents home in Kirovohrad hoping to find a safer place to stay. Both of them lost their jobs and can no longer support their child. They do not have any savings left. My grandmother (Faina, 84 years old) and aunt (Ekaterina Ponomareva) are left alone in the small city, Kamenka, without any support from family members.

My mother and I are raising money to send to use for food, shelter, clothing, and other materials needed. If possible, any donation is greatly appreciated and truly helps during these challenging times for my family back home. Please continue to keep Ukraine in your thoughts and prayers.
