We are collecting humanitarian aid packages for Ukraine. Items should be delivered this week to St Michael’s Ukrainian Catholic Church in New Haven by Monday, March 7, 2022 or Ukrainian National Home of Hartford by Monday, March 7, 2022–see addresses below (Or as soon as you can-there will be another shipment arranged later.)
NOTE WELL: This humanitarian collection is different from what is being collected for the soldiers. THAT list is found here. We need wheelchairs for the wounded soldiers.
Items needed are listed below. We also will need money for shipping this week’s items. Any amount you can donate for shipping also will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you from the Ukrainian American Community of St Michael Ukrainian Catholic Church and the Ukrainian National Home of Hartford.
