Ukraine once again needs our help.
Ukraine
is under siege by foreign and domestic provocateurs who are being paid to
destabilize Ukraine and to disrupt the upcoming Presidential elections.
What you don’t see on TV is that hundreds of Ukrainian patriotic journalists,
youth, and other activists in eastern Ukraine are being targeted on the
streets, at their homes, and in their workplaces for standing up for
Ukraine. If they attend a demonstration to support a united Ukraine, they
harassed or attacked. Several have been kidnapped. They now live in
constant fear. We are receiving daily requests for humanitarian,
communication, logistics, and other support to help them and their
families. Many have fled, others are braving it out – after all these are
their ancestral homelands.
