Friends of Ukraine,
We hope you had a sunny, peaceful, and memorable Easter holiday. Hrystos Voskres! Christ Has Risen!
The Easter spirit of renewal has a very special meaning in our lives in Ukraine today. We all hope for a new light and many do as much as possible to bring this moment closer.
It would not be possible without you and we are very grateful for your ongoing support. We would like to bring you up to date on our current activities and achievements that help Ukrainians to keep going and keep our faith in the bright future.
We will start with the ongoing project of supporting the forgotten. The people you will see in the photos below are mostly retired or handicapped and their monthly pension is often less than 100 USD. They live in poverty and they can’t afford basic things not to say about the holiday Easter meal. The war made things even worse. We did our best to bring them a bit of the festive spirit.
We have prepared 182 sets that include some of the key dishes that are usually served for Easter breakfast in Ukraine: an Easter cake, sausage, bacon, saltison, horse reddish, some fresh cabbage to make a salad, sweets, and tea.
