During this harsh, frigid winter, Russia is persistently and purposely attacking Ukraine’s energy infrastructure, aiming to demoralize the population by leaving hospitals, shelters, apartment buildings, homes, and families cold and in the dark.
What can we do? How can we help?

You are invited to join us on Thursday evening February 5, at the home of Carolyn Bates in the south end of Burlington, to connect, share, learn, and collect money and raise funds to send warmth to Ukraine.
