Help our Ukrainian family get to Canada

Donation protected
My family and I are in the process of helping our relatives in Ukraine escape the senseless and brutal war that is happening in their country. They had to leave with 2 young children and make the dangerous journey to Poland with only what they could carry in small bags and backpacks. They also had to leave behind their husbands, who bravely stayed to fight for their country. Currently the 4 are safe in Poland, where they have been for the last 2 weeks, while we wait for their Canadian visas to be processed. Helping family members escape from a war is not something anyone ever expected to have to budget for and it is an incredibly expensive process. My family in Canada has been financially supporting all 4 of them since they've arrived in Poland with hotel, food, and travel expenses since they currently do not have access to their own funds. This money donated will go towards all the plane tickets to get them to Canada as well as the expenses that have already been put out. It will also go towards setting them up for success here in Canada since they left with almost nothing. They will need to buy household items, baby clothes and supplies, clothes for themselves, furniture, as well as all other living expenses. Nobody should ever have to go through what this family has so we would like to make sure that all their needs are met so they can be comfortable while they are in Canada.
Thank you
