Help the Hipolito family after fleeing Ukraine

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Rachel Draut. Yazel and Vilma are a wonderful couple I met and became good friends with while I was in Peru 6 years ago. They had the cutest two boys, Maximo and Tom (now 11 and 8 years old). Since then, they've added two more sweet boys to their family, Yazelito and Pablo (2 years old and 7 months old).

Because of Yazel's work as a helicopter pilot, the family has lived in Ukraine for the last couple of years. Due to the recent conflict, they've had to escape back to Peru. Most of the family left before the invasion, and Yazel made it out 3 days into the war and got home to Peru 2 days after that. While his company could pay for his final flight to Peru, the family had to dig into their savings to pay for the rest of the sudden relocation costs.

Yazel has been unemployed for about a month. His last paycheck was February 24th, the day of the first attack. His next work period would've started on March 19th, but there's no work for him in Peru. Now they live in a small house where the whole family of six shares one bedroom. They need money to build another bedroom onto the place to live more comfortably. They also need help paying for food and car repairs.

Please consider donating to help out the Hipolito family during this difficult time!
