Dear Friend of Democracy, Freedom, and Peace:

More than 14,000 people have been killed during the most recent Russian war against Ukraine, which began in 2014. Many thousands more have been crippled, disabled, or severely injured; and more then 1.5 million civilians have been displaced, or are internal refugees.

Our small volunteer group in Buffalo, NY organized "Aid for Ukraine" fundraiser to rase money for humanitarian efforts.

Since 2014 we have already made hundreds of shipments of humanitarian aid including sleeping bags, winter coats, boots, socks, tourniquets, bandages, syringes, wheelchairs, and emergency respiratory equipment. Total weight of shipments is much more than 50,000 pounds. From 2014 through 2019 the Buffalo Ukrainian Community has raised $91,208 and we have spent $90,552. Most of our expenses have been for shipping and transportation which has allowed us to leverage several million dollars of medical aid donated by generous American organizations. We also helped displaced people, orphanages, families that lost loved ones and wounded soldiers.
