<div dir="ltr">I know we’ve all seen the news, and the horrible pictures that come along with it. Regardless of your politics I think all of us can agree on what’s happening in Ukraine is clearly a humanitarian crisis. Central European countries are overrun
with refugees that need humanitarian assistance.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I’m happy to report to one of our long-time members has stepped up to help. Mattias Kessén(Sweden) is involved in helping acclimate some Ukrainian refugees to his area in Sweden. Here a quote from him in some emails we have been exchanging:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);background-color:rgb(255,255,255)">“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”</span></div>
<div><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);background-color:rgb(255,255,255)"><br>
</span></div>
<div><font color="#000000"><span style="background-color:rgb(255,255,255)">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.</span></font></div>
<div><font color="#000000"><span style="background-color:rgb(255,255,255)"><br>
</span></font></div>
<div><font color="#000000"><span style="background-color:rgb(255,255,255)">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).</span></font></div>
<div><font color="#000000"><span style="background-color:rgb(255,255,255)"><br>

<div><font color="#000000"><span style="background-color:rgb(255,255,255)">If you want to help Mattias and his town, simply send a small gift to his PayPal address:</span></font></div>

<div>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.</div>
