Help a Ukrainian Family rebuild their lives

Hi, my name is Seth. I am helping a Ukrainian family rebuild their lives in Portland after their home in Ukraine was bombed by the Russians.

As you are probably aware, the ongoing conflict in Ukraine has left countless families devastated, with their lives upended by the unthinkable violence and destruction caused by the Russian invasion.

Among these families is Olha, a 45-year old woman, her 22-year old son Andrew, and her 13- year old daughter Anna. When their home in Ukraine was bombed they were left without shelter, basic necessities, or a sense of security.

Fleeing this turmoil, they have embarked on a courageous journey to seek refuge and a brighter future in Portland, but they need help to rebuild their lives and provide a safe and stable environment for their family.

With the help of Alex and Roman, two generous hotel operators in Hillsboro, I have been able to arrange housing for Olha and Anna, and Andrew will be staying at my home. I have also been able to set up school and transportation for Anna to attend school in Hillsboro, and a possible job for Olha in Hillsboro after they arrive on Oct. 2.

In order to help them get on their feet with fall/winter/rain clothes, food and health care, etc. I have set up a GoFundMe campaign. Every contribution, no matter how small, will go a long way in helping them.

Let's show them that even in their darkest hours, they are not alone. Your kindness can b e a beacon of light in their lives and a testament to the strength of our community.
