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?
My name is Annie. I lived in Kyiv for a few months teaching English in the elementary schools. I loved with a host family while there and was able to learn more about the Ukrainian culture in my time there.
Can you tell us why you stand with Ukraine?
I stand with Ukraine because of all the wonderful people I was able to meet in my time there. It was my first opportunity to spend time outside of the U.S. and learn about other cultures. They took me in and are a warm, welcoming people with so much to offer. I learned to humble myself and they truly taught me how to care best for others outside of myself. I love the people and country of Ukraine more than I can say.
Well, thank you for sharing your thoughts. In closing, is there a project, nonprofit, or an event that our readers should support?
If they are still collecting donations, International Language Program was raising money to send to the children and families over there that we have connections with and doing what they can to support the people in Ukraine.
