As the war in Ukraine continues, conditions have only worsened. Winter is here andtemperatures are expected to bebelow -30 degrees Celcius. Already 50-90% of the power infrastructure has been intentionally destroyed and civilians need heat, shelter, medicine, and basic supplies to survive.Without infrastructure the cities and people cease to function causing a domino effect deaths and destruction. People cant work, stay warm, perform surgeries, go to school, or do anything without power and heat or supplies. Another maternity ward was bombed and just before it was destroyed, 2 children were born. That's a miracle.

Through Rotary, Selectiva.Org, Ik Onkar Bridges, Ukraine Liberty Fund, United Help Ukraine, and other NGO partners in the U.S., we have been able to provide aid for the last 10 months, but their suffering still increases.Over 15 million Ukrainians are displaced. Our support is needed more than ever!10,000 generators have been asked of us. We have the opportunity to ship 1,500 generators to Ukraine and simultaneously give 1,000 ovens to help freezing families immediately.

Place your bid (or many bids!) to help the people of Ukraine! We hope you will be generous in your bidding. Your contributions will make a difference!
