[AT] Off topic: Ukraine

[Spencer Yost]

Sorry. After rereading your message I realized I should’ve included specific instructions. Here they are. 

After logging into PayPal and getting to your account overview, click send.

It’ll ask for the recipients email address. key in that  address I mentioned

Key in the amount you want to send. Here’s the only tricky part. It may default to Euros so be sure to select SEK (which is the abbreviation for Swedish krona)

Next, select your funding source.

Lastley you’ll get a confirmation screen asking you to review the information. Click send payment now and you are done!

>> “I will leave early tomorrow first to my son's high school for their mini vans and then to Nynäshamn a port  some 150 miles away for 70 refugees. The headmaster offered their vehicles this morning it's fantastic to see so many people working together”
>> 
>> Final settlement and logistics are not finalized but it appears Mattiias will be - more likely than not - hosting a family.  After much cajoling and begging on my part I finally convinced him to let the list chip in a few bucks towards his own and his town’s and school’s sacrifice to take care of these folks and offset a few expenses.
>> 
>> And I did this for one reason. It’s so hard for us in the US to know who to support with our financial resources in this war.  There’s so many aid organizations and go fund me pages and what not. Also, I know some folks have trouble with some of the foreign payment systems. But this is something we can do. I’m not sure that the financial need is all that great in this particular situation but every dollar is a vote of confidence and support. I think that’s probably the greatest gift:  That the folks taking care of business in Sweden know we understand their sacrifice(it’s important to note that Kyiv is closer to Mattias than his moose hunting grounds).
>> 
>> If you want to help Mattias and his town, simply send a small gift to his PayPal address:

>> 
>> I’ve already sent a small donation via PayPal and I’ve confirmed that the money safely reached them quickly.   He’ll make sure that the funds are used responsibly for offsetting expenses for the folks and institutions hosting and helping these families.
