RAISING AWARENESS AND FUNDS FOR UKRAINE

On March 24, the Rotary Club of Buffalo hosted an event at the Ukrainian Cultural Center Dnipro.  Buffalo Sunrise and Medical Campus clubs were invited to join us in this wonderful evening of fellowship, Ukrainian food, drink and culture.  Buffalo Rotary and its Foundation made a $5,000 gift for humanitarian relief at the event, and we learned more about this beautiful community resource.  In addition, close to $2,000 additional dollars were raised in personal contributions.
 
We thank the Center’s leader, Emil Bandriwsky, and the beautiful women who cooked such a fabulous meal for us, for their hospitality.
 
We are grateful for the generosity of Rotarians as we stand with Ukraine during this unimaginably difficult time.
