✨ Our 3rd Annual Fundraiser for Ukraine — THANK YOU! 🇺🇦💙💛
Last Thursday, 12/11, the New York Lithuanian Professionals Club proudly co-organized our third annual fundraiser to support Ukraine. Thanks to your generosity—and a lively silent auction—we raised an incredible $50,000 for two heroic organizations:
✨ Save Ukraine – rescuing and protecting Ukrainian children deported to Russia
✨ KindDeeds Inc – providing medical care and prosthetics for wounded Ukrainian defenders and civilians
We extend our deepest gratitude to our amazing partners:
🤝 Lietuvos Generalinis Konsulatas Niujorke/Consulate Gen. of Lithuania in NY
🤝 Permanent Mission of Lithuania to the United Nations
🤝 Kazickas Family Foundation
And a heartfelt personal thanks to:
Rytis Paulauskas, Ruta Paulauskienė, Leonardas Gujis, Neila Baumilienė, Dovydas Špokauskas, Radvilė Maškevičiūtė, Kamilė Nemeikšytė, and our growing list of generous donors.
“While we live comfortably in the U.S., Ukraine is experiencing one of the darkest winters in generations. We hoped to bring some light to our Ukrainian brothers and sisters by co-organizing this fundraiser especially during festive holiday season. Thank you to everyone who contributed so generously”,
— Gediminas Ramanauskas, New York Lithuanian Professionals Club.
💛💙 Thank you for showing up with warmth, solidarity, and support. Together, we shine a little light into Ukraine’s darkest days.
