Thanks for taking the time to sit with us to share your thoughts with our readers. Can you start out by sharing a little bit about you?
Live in KC with my husband of 38 years - work as a nurse at a children's hospital.
Can you tell us why you stand with Ukraine?
We have a friend who is from the Ukraine- we met him through our niece. He is a wonderful person. Even if we did not know him, we would still stand with Ukraine. The people are so amazing and the fact that they have been fighting back and holding their own this long against Russia and what it stands for just melts my heart. I pray for the people of Ukraine every day and hope that they can continue to stand up and win against the evil Putin.
Well, thank you for sharing your thoughts. In closing, is there a project, nonprofit, or an event that our readers should support?
There are so many projects out there. Many of them were started by local people from the Ukraine rising up to help support their mother land. I suggest you check out what is going on in your community to see how you can help and get involved.
