What a week! I don't know when I have been so tired, working all week and trying to plan this in six days was a challenge. A few thought it could not be done, but with a great team behind you, all can be done. The generosity throughout the week has been amazing. The event was beyond anything I could have hoped for. People came to support and after the four-hour event, we had made over $10,000 USD. By tomorrow it will be over $11, 000(drips and drabs coming in). We had a Ukrainian folk singing Busker, face painting, treasure hunts, adult games, amazing food, bake sale, silent auction, and pretty much the best raffle I have ever seen at a similar event.
It is not a huge amount in the whole scheme of things but maybe if everyone did a little something. It was a lovely day and a stark reminder of how lucky we are and how fast it could all change. #UnitedforUkraine
