We received word today from Anna, Father Roman’s wife, who informed us that the GREATEST URGENT NEED right now is for WINTER CLOTHING for people of ALL AGES.

Hats, gloves/mittens, coats, pants, underware, sweaters, sweat suits and anything else that will enable them to be protected from very cold winter weather.

Please deliver these Items to the church hall on Saturday between the hours of 10:00 AM and 2:00 PM and Tuesday from 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM by Saturday, November 5th. They will need to be packed during the week after November 6th so they can be loaded on the truck on on Saturday, November 12th to send off to Dnipro in New Jersey on Monday, November 14th.

The ideal situation would be to transport these items to Ukraine by plane. The cost per pound to do that is currently $2.20 per pound. We will need to solicit additional funding to cover the added cost of shipping the clothing by plane to get these items over to Ukraine quickly.
