Blog post from 23 December 2022
Yesterday, we received information from our Ukrainian friend Alissa, with whom we stayed for a few days last year as Warmshowers guests, about how we can specifically help some elderly, poor people in the Transcarpathia region in the west of the country.
These people are currently living at -12°C without electricity and urgently need wood for heating. With their monthly pension of about 80 euros, they cannot afford this and are dependent on financial help.
Alissa herself lives in the Transcarpathian region and will take care of the logistics. Her husband Vitaliy fought at the front for a time, is now fortunately stationed elsewhere, and survived a sniper attack by a hair’s breadth; the shot hit his Kalashnikov.
If you would like to give a “warm” Christmas present to those affected, you can transfer money in Euros directly to the account of Alissa’s husband Vitaliy. The account is in Slovakia, they live right on the Slovakia/Ukraine border, this as info. They can then withdraw this money locally in the local currency, hryvnia.
