Sunflower Project to Support Ukraine... The sunflower is a majestic flower that holds powerful symbolism for Ukrainian’s representing peace, unity and love and are seen as a beacon of hope to the Ukrainian people. The sunflower with its spiritual qualities has connected the world to Stand With Ukraine. We want to encourage people to plant sunflower seeds this spring. In this way we can show visible support for Ukraine and the Ukrainian people. The money raised from the project are going to support the volunteers in the territorial defense force and to medical aid in Ukraine. What we have accomplished with the funds raised to date: •$10,000.00 to Ukraine to help the volunteers make items for the territorial defence from vests to camouflage netting •$5,000.00 to Kyiv Children’s Hospital •$3,500.00 to the Vinitsyia Blood Lab to help purchase a blood machine •Various medical supplies sent into Ukraine Ukrainian Canadian Congress-Saskatoon Branch (UCC-SK) thanks you in advance for spreading the seeds and directing folks to make a donation by etransfer to uccukraine2022@gmail.com.
