Idaho Falls Concert for Ukraine

OPPORTUNITIES TO SUPPORT UKRAINE

Dear Friends,

A year later the work continues, and I continue to be asked by people about ways to help the people of Ukraine who continue to suffer terribly. So many of you supported the Concert For Ukraine that has given $43,000 to charities doing work on the ground in Ukraine. What many of you (and I until recently) did not know is that an Idaho Falls based charity has raised over $2 million during the past year and provided modular homes, meals, and other humanitarian services for thousands of Ukrainians!

Svitlana and Darin Miller from Idaho Falls founded and lead an amazing organization - To Ukraine with Love - and their Heros for Ukraine campaign is doing amazing work ON THE GROUND. It all started with their son and some friends standing outside of Lowe's in Idaho Falls raising money to build one modular home for a family in need. With the support of businesses and individuals in the area and beyond, their work has mushroomed into one of the most consequential aid initiatives in Ukraine. It caught the eye of former Ukrainian first lady Kateryna Yushchenko and her husband Vicktor who led Ukraine from 2005 to 2010 and is now one of the country's strongest advocates in its fight against Russian aggression.

I recently became aware of a wonderful opportunity to give to this amazing initiative - the "Heros for Ukraine" benefit dinner in Idaho Falls on Wednesday, April 19th. The Yushchenko's are making a special trip to Idaho to thank the Millers and all the people who have supported this work. Similar benefits will be taking place in Boise, Salt Lake City, and Logan during their week in the USA - all sold out events. To Ukraine with Love Website

To support this businesses and individuals can purchase a table for $10,000 (10 seats) or a seat for $1,000. Please help fill the event by reaching out to businesses and individuals you know in the area. You can go directly to their site to help as well: https://toukrainewithlove.org/idaho-falls/

If you can't attend, live in other parts of the country, or the benefit dinner is beyond your giving budget, you can still donate any amount to this amazing work at: https://toukrainewithlove.org/

LASTLY, PLEASE FORWARD THIS TO OTHERS who may be interested in giving to this special cause!

With gratitude,

Mark and Vera
