We applaud the efforts of the highly rated and respected international charity, Save The Children — Ukraine ( savethechildren.org ). Save The Children is helping Ukrainian children and families focusing on health, safety and education.
And “hats off” to the local effort spearheaded by young Ojai residents and others helping Ukrainian children. The Southern California citizens and a small group of committed college students in California are raising money for Ukrainian children through the sale of T-shirts. The shirts have a simple, yet direct, five-word message: “Russia Go Home — Leave Ukraine.” These words are also translated into Russian to send the clear message. All proceeds from sales and donations go to the Save The Children – Ukraine campaign.
Save The Children was founded over 100 years ago. The students and a small team of helpers are beginning to sell the shirts through the following website: russialeaveukraine.com . So much help is needed during this horrific humanitarian catastrophe affecting millions of Ukrainians. Recently, the team met with members of the Ukrainian Consulate in San Francisco and received sincere support and recognition of their efforts.
