Sunday Outreach Collections
For the month of May 2025 NH4Ukraine is the outreach offering recipient.
NH4Ukraine.org is a Bedford-based nonprofit started just weeks after Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine on February 24, 2022. They just completed their 7th mission (April 2024-April 2025), providing humanitarian aid to the hardest-hit areas of Ukraine. Since they pay all their personal expenses (travel, rent, food, etc.), tax-deductible donations go directly to providing essential food & hygiene to small towns and villages near the front lines.
Working out of the large city of Kharkiv in the northeast corner of the country (just 20 miles from the Russian border) gives them access to wholesale pricing to squeeze the most out of every dollar donated. The front line villages are only about 2-3 hours away from their garage, and working with military guides they have access to the areas that otherwise would receive little to no assistance.
In addition to making these deliveries, NH4Ukraine also co-manages a program for displaced children whose families have been forced to flee their villages to the safer city of Kharki. These regular events at refugee shelters provide a fun distraction for kids whose lives have been uprooted by war. The programs involve arts activities, athletic and musical events.
NH4Ukraine will be heading back to Ukraine for another year-long mission in mid-late June. With future support from the US government largely in question, it’s more important than ever for caring people to support Ukraine in their quest to reach a just and lasting peace.
You can follow their activities on Facebook and Instagram at NH4Ukraine, and learn more about them at www.NH4Ukraine.org
