DAY 275: IRPIN, UKRAINE. We need 40 propane stovetops & 80 thermal blankets ASAP! (Scroll down to see how…)
Dead center, first to be destroyed, in the heart of occupation, Galina’s building was destroyed. She almost died. }
Friends were killed by shrapnel, fire, summary executions.
She, and about 80 other survivors, have no electricity, no gas, no running water. For 9 months.
They can’t bathe normally, can’t cook anything (except outside on a homemade grill with scrap wood, rubber, and anything else flammable they find)… and now, winter is here.
EVEN WITH ALL THE JOURNALISM, NO ONE HAS OFFERED HER MEANINGFUL HELP, UNTIL NOW.
I WANT TO GET GALINA AND EVERY ONE OF HER NEIGHBORS A PROPANE STOVETOP & 2 THERMAL BLANKETS... and I want to deliver them personally by Friday this coming week.
A propane stovetop (tank & fuel included) costs $100; blankets are $25 each.
• $10 refills a propane tank to heat a family’s food for at least a week
• $25 warms a soul through the bitter cold winter with a thermal blanket/sleeping bag
• $50 keeps TWO souls insulated through spring with thermal blankets/sleeping bags
• $100 provides propane stovetop for an abandoned, at-risk family in one of the most desperate situations I’ve seen, to cook and eat humanitarian relief meals, 99% which require boiling or heat
* $1,000 gives 10 families the means to eat through the winter and beyond
* $4,000 provides stovetops to everyone in this building and a similar one next door
* $6,000 gives 40 propane stovetops and 80 thermal blankets to my dear friends here, and we can get it ALL to them this Friday, with your help!
It’s dire, it’s urgent. I’m still here, not going anywhere. Blackouts, missiles, misery, suffering… and, THANK TO YOU — joy, celebration, food, precious moments, LOVE being distributed EVERY CHANCE WE GET!
Jesus gave it all… would you consider donating generously today to this urgent need!
On behalf of Heroes International & the resilient people of this great nation, a sincere THANK YOU in advance!
Let’s do this.
