The members of the New Haven CT Ukrainian American Humanitarian Aid Fund board of directors would like to express our deep gratitude to everyone who has been contributing so much to our program, both financially and through the donations of items that have been shipped to Ukraine. Our 12th shipment arrived in Ukraine on April 15th. The total estimated value of everything that has been sent over now exceeds $8 million. Fr. Roman Manulyak, who is our one and only contact person in Ukraine, has a large group of volunteers who distribute everything that we send over to many regions of Ukraine including the front lines in Eastern Ukraine. You can personally view the reports that Fr. Roman has been posting on the following Facebook pages: Facebook.com/carlrharvey, Heart of the Samaritan Fund or the New Haven CT Ukrainian American Humanitarian Aid Fund to see what we have accomplished in the past two years. The current request from Fr. Roman as of 6-18-2024 is for money that will enable him to purchase urgently needed medications and surgical masks for medical staff at 2 hospitals in the Lviv region and medical facilities near the battlefields at the frontlines in Eastern Ukraine. The specific items what we can provide are disposable undergarments for adults and pampers for Children, white sheets, pillowcases and disposable pads to put between the sheets and mattress on hospital beds, medical grade gloves(all sizes), crutches, wheelchairs, electric wheelchairs and walkers. We are also sending over winter clothing for adults and children.
