As the war and humanitarian crisis in Ukraine continues, people worldwide have offered an outpouring of love and support for the Ukrainian people. Over six million refugees have fled Ukraine and the internal refugee situation is still dire. The crisis threatens to increase hunger around the world and the threat of nuclear war still looms. Let’s not forget Ukraine: the people of Ukraine and the countries that have taken them are in need of our continued support.
