Since the founding of HelpingUkraine.us in June, 2022, the organization has accelerated its activity supplying medical supplies. It has also amassed huge grassroots efforts to supply citizens in small villages along the war front with life’s necessities, just to keep going.
The team based in the Odesa People’s Church serves 50 villages and has been prepared to move in as the Ukrainian Army takes back areas along the war front. Possibly this will happen quickly if the instability in Russia continues.
Helping, as the name implies, individuals living in these small villages devastated by the war means efforts to raise funds and awareness have never been more important. The relationships with the Ukrainian community here in Atlanta make the work one of passion and friendship.
