Community Kindness to assist the Ukrainian refugees who are experiencing horrific loss and tragedy at this moment.

People often ask in time of disaster or crisis, "What can I do?". Dan Zalewski, a lifelong resident of Langlade county asked himself that question as he watched the invasion of Ukraine by Russia leaving over two and a half million fleeing their country.

"The images of mothers and their children having to abandon their homes to save their lives is heartbreaking. I felt I had to do something. It is just too easy to be moved by other people's suffering but not take any measures to help them. Recently I watched the Jefferson Awards and saw how every day people were doing such wonderful things to help others. I just figured it was time for me to get involved. I've never done anything like this before."

Dan has started a campaign to help the Ukrainian refugees. It is named Community Kindness/ukrainian Relief. He and a couple friends will match funds of up to $ 10000. The money will be distributed between three charities working directly with the refugees . They are, Save the Children, World Central Kitchen, and Razom in Ukraine (together in Ukrainian). These three non profits cover the areas of food, shelter and medical assistance for the refugees.

Dan is asking this community to join him in helping these families that are enduring such suffering as they flee their homes because of Russia's aggression.
