Help my parents during war in Ukraine.

My name is Oksana Lytvynenko. I was born and raised in Kiev, Ukraine. My parents never wanted to follow me to the United States. They love their country Ukraine very much and were happily living there until now they caught themselves in a middle of this horrific war when they have to spend most of the day and night huddled in underground bomb shelters.

 

They both live a very simple life in Ukraine, Kiev's region with very little means. They are very proud to be Ukrainian and will not ask for help on their own, that is why I'm asking for them. The funds will be used for their food, medicine, and other basic living expenses, including the evacuation to a safer place to stay during the war situation in Ukraine.

Any assistance you could provide them would be greatly appreciated.

God bless all of you.

 

Long live Ukraine!

I left Ukraine 20 years ago as a single Mom in search of a better opportunity for my son and myself here in the United States. We both worked hard to become American citizens, which was important to us.

 

Here are pictures of my Mom Eudokia and Dad Nikolay (before the war), and their Liza and Budulai (cats).
