I am Yulianna Zakharchishina. My daughter, Valentina Goch, born in 1992, my granddaughter’s Veronika Goch’s, born in 2015 and Valeria Aleksandrovna Goch, born in 2017 had to leave Ukraine. I am asking for temporary housing assistance, because of the increasing air attacks on our hometown of Rivne. February 23 was the last calm day in our lives. Until recently, it was hoped that the enemy would stop their perfidious invasion. But this morning proved otherwise. The attack on the airfield in Lutsk forced us to spend half the night in a shelter. Children are afraid. Please help my children and grandchildren! Thank you!

Valentina, Veronika and Valeria arrived in Gdynia in the house of the founders of the Hummingbird Effort Foundation on March 13th in the middle of the night. The Hummingbird Effort Foundation is assisting them with the legal aspect of their status, schools, job search, food and clothing. They are safe now.
