Still talking with Vikki. The explosions have stopped. She and her family are safe.
With that, I think I can post a little update with regards to weekend progress. First, some good news:
I had 50,000 HUF from Driven 5, and with the 91,500 huf that came in from the trivia night, I was able to score a bag of stuffies!
"Scale" is a tough thing to show sometimes, hopefully that last picture gives you an idea of how many were purchased (because honestly, we don't know. We didn't even bother counting).
This will tentatively check off "stuffies" from our list for our next delivery to Dnipro. In similar news, I received a message from a friend who used to live in Sicily. She said that someone in her old group hand made 35 blankets for children, but due to the lack of Ukrainians in the area, no one could use them. Could we find a place for them in Dnipro?
Some quick messaging between Vikki and myself and we decided "we certainly could!!!". They're being sent this way as we speak and I really cant wait to see them.
Next up we start working on gathering UV-C disinfection lamps (24ea) for the Rehab center, and Christmas toys for any child that needs it (and we haven't even opened the gates for donations yet!!!!). I really hope this positive trend continues.
