Ukraine Relief Fund, 2022
Help for Ukraine
About this page
This page is a record of the Ukraine relief effort our church began in 2022: the fund opened at the church, the appeal made to the congregation at the time, and the reports sent back by the teams that travelled that spring. The wording below is kept as it was written in 2022. It is not a current appeal.
Dear friends,
As you all hear, see, and know, the war in Ukraine brought grief, tears, destruction, pain and death. Here in United States, we are Blessed by God that in our country we have peace and prosperity. However, our conscience does not allow us to stay on the sidelines while people in Ukraine suffer. If your heart desires, please join us in our efforts to help our brothers and sisters in Ukraine. We are grateful for your financial contributions, prayers, and support.
What has already been done and what are the plans?!
A special fund has been created at the SBC church “On The Hill”. We have been in contact with local churches in Kyiv, Vinnitsa, Zaporozhye, and Donbass. We have also begun sending aid to Moldova and Poland, the neighboring countries, to assist locals as they open their hearts and homes to help tens of thousands of refugees that flee from Ukraine every day.
Your donations will serve to aid with acquisition of food, medicine, and sleeping supplies such as pillows and blankets. They will also help refugees cross the border and settle into a new place.
At the moment, the scope of this fund does not include repairs of local homes or transports.
Please join us in helping the Ukrainian people! God bless you!
News from our team that flew from America to Ukraine
March 11, 2022
Our team arrived in Krakow, Poland on March 10.
First day was spent purchasing transportation and all the supplies (food, clothes, diapers, mattresses, bedding…etc) to be delivered to Ukraine.
We have two vans that will be heading out to the Ukrainian border tomorrow.
We are grateful for all the donations and want to assure you, every single $ went to help those refugees that are in desperate need right now.
Please keep us in your prayers for safety on the roads, as we head toward the border.
We thank you so much for all your prayers and generous hearts!
