In loving memory of Ian Nicholas Cajas, US MMN3-PO3.
I am a 100% disabled US Air Force veteran, injured as a medic in Iraq. I hope my donation helps my fellow medics in Ukraine. I believe in your country and your cause, and I pray for your safety, deliverance and speedy skills for your fellow combatants and civilians. I am honored to give what I can. I was injured when I was 27 and have not been able to work since. I do not have a lot to spare, but sometimes you have to feed your soul as much as your body. Stay strong. There are many around the world who support you in this battle.
I am the daughter of a Canadian WW2 vet. I do this in his memory. Love from Toronto, Canada
I'm so sorry Trump has abandoned you! I am with you, and I meet on Zoom every day with people from all over the US and Europe to pray for Ukraine! May God be with you, and may you prevail against Russia! Glory to God. Slava Ukraini!
I'm so sorry for what the Ukrainian people have been experiencing over the past few years. So many people across the world, including many Americans, are standing with you from afar and sending you strength and support however we can. Stay strong, stay safe, and do not give up. As we say in the state of New Hampshire, "Live Free or Die. [Death is not the worst of evils.]"
I'm an FMF Navy Corpsman veteran. Kits save lives. Keep up the fight, for Glory to Ukraine!
I'm so proud of you, sorry that you're enduring this, and I believe in you. This is a fight that should never be happening in today's world, and I am praying it's over very fast. Enough. Dayenu.
You are such brave and smart people. I hope this life of hell changes very soon. God bless you. My grandfather was from Ukraine. He was Jewish and came to NYC. So here I am.
With your country in prayers and actions. I have been saying a nightly rosary for the success of Ukraine in defeating Putin's war since February 2022! Slava Ukraini!
As a Vietnam vet, I think it's safe to say that we stand with you!
Wishing you well, the people of my great-grandparents and distant cousins. I'm so sorry that the world has so much evil and that the support we give you is not more. Your fight is the shield of the free world, and we must be with you or live under similar tyranny. We will be watching for news of you all through the Kyiv Independent and other sources that reach us online. So many strangers here are thinking of you all every day.
Your situation and courage bring tears to my eyes. I wish I could share more. Every day I wish the best for your safety and for a just peace. You are having to fight for all the free world. Slava Ukraini!
I am a 71-year-old American woman. My father and uncles helped save the world from fascism during World War 2. They were called the Greatest Generation. That is what you all are now: this century's greatest generation. Slava Ukraini! Heroiam slava! ✌🏻🇺🇦💛💙
I wish you success and strength as you defend your loved ones and homeland. I hope you soon come home ready and able to dance with your beloveds! Slava Ukraini!
I have held each one of you in my heart since day one of this horrible invasion, and I am so proud of you and of those who sacrificed their lives or were murdered because of it. I will continue sending supplies. No sane person on the planet supports the madman behind all this. Keep your strength, your humanity and your true Ukrainian identity, and may we all greet and celebrate your victory together in every land. Love from Wayland, Massachusetts, USA
Stay strong! You are amazing the world with your courage. We are here, and will be until you win this thing! Vietnam Veteran.
My mother was born in Ukraine. Please know that Americans support you in your fight against Russia. We grieve for your loss of loved ones and admire your bravery. Please do not give up!
From the U.S., with love and support. In honor of Valentine P.
I have been praying for you since day one of this war, and I keep sunflowers in my flower pots so I never forget. I ask God to watch over you and protect you.
As the grandson of a Ukrainian refugee whose family fled the czar in the early 1900s, I am outraged at Trump's betrayal of Ukraine and his embrace of Putin. Stay strong!
My Jewish family fled Ukraine during the pogroms in 1912. Save the Ukrainian people and the Jews. Prayers.
Your flag has flown in front of our house since the second day of the war. Your courage and dedication are an inspiration even 5,300 miles away. Bless you and all your people.
As an Army veteran, my thoughts and prayers are with all of you.
Members of our family came from Ukraine. Know of our prayers, love and support! We believe in you and what you're fighting for. Truth will prevail. God is on your side. Keep trusting and believing.
I salute you and everyone else who is fighting for Ukraine. I want you to know that this American is very thankful, because no country should be able to bomb another country this long and take it. You may get tired and lonely and hungry and cold, but just keep fighting to keep your country. We don't know what we can do until we're put in that situation. I have been in war before and know many things about it. I can't help you fight this war, but I can sure send some things to you that will help you keep doing what you're doing.
"Good friends are like stars; you cannot always see them, but you know they are there." 🦜 🌷
I am an American, and I strongly believe in you and your cause. I have ancestors from the Carpathian Mountains near Prešov, and I know our cultures are closely intertwined. I send my love and support.
I have a Ukrainian grandfather who emigrated right after WWI. I hope to visit before I no longer can. Almost all of the US stands firmly behind you! Slava Ukraini!
As an old Cold Warrior, I am ashamed of the US abandonment of its role as a beacon of freedom and democracy. Ukraine has now taken over that role. Glory to Ukraine!
In the Bhagavad Gita, the sentiment "I will do what I must" reflects the core principle of Dharma (sacred duty) and Nishkama Karma (selfless action without attachment to the results).
The courage of your president and of the people of Ukraine makes me unbelievably proud to be a distant descendant of your people. I still fly your flag.
To the people and patriots of Ukraine, my prayers to you. I am a stroke survivor, forced to retire, but I will still donate to your just cause for as long as I can. If I were younger, I would have loved to join you in your fight.
We still support and believe in your mission. I live in Buffalo, NY, and work with a few Ukrainian people. This donation is in honor of them, as their hearts break seeing what Russia is doing to your country. Russia is wrong; Ukraine is strong in heart and in its conviction to defend its people and land. My dad, at 18 years old, fought in Germany to defend freedom. I am so sorry for your losses, and thank you for staying strong in your beliefs. The world is in your debt for how you stand up for freedom, not just for Ukraine but for the world. Sending my love and prayers that the war will end soon. Jeanine
I'm in awe of your strength and commitment to your country. I have spent time in your beautiful country and look forward to a peaceful time when I can return. Please don't judge us by our administration. So many of us support all you do, and we are pulling for you!
I wish I could do so much more for you. I worry about all of you fighting so hard for Ukraine. Even now, thinking about the horrors you all continually experience brings tears. I'm sorry the president here has turned his back. My friends and I are mortified. You all have been so strong and work so hard. You love your country so much. Again, I wish I were a rich woman and could do more. Hugs from an old lady in the US.
I'm a 76-year-old U.S. Marine with bad knees and kidneys. I wish you success in driving out the orcs who have invaded your country and are terrorizing your people. I hope you all will be with your loved ones soon. Glory to Ukraine! Glory to the Heroes! 🇺🇦 🇺🇸
We Americans support you.
My entire family and my wife's family are all from Kyiv. We are praying for peace. Our thoughts are with you every day. Slava Ukraini!
Hi Ukraine, from Toronto, Canada. I have been donating to White Stork, United24 and cufoundation.ca in memory of my father, who fought Hitler in WW2. Thank you to all who fight for Ukraine.
We have a Ukrainian family living here in Oregon, and I see them being happily normal as the parents go to work and the kids go to school. It's very sad to know that normal for most Ukrainians has become something entirely different. I wish you well and hope you can keep your spirit strong until this wasteful war ends.
We love Ukraine and spent time there when our daughter was a Peace Corps volunteer. This is a small thing we can do for you. Slava Ukraini!
Thank you for your sacrificial service to your country, your people and the world. As a human and a retired RN, I value your precious lives. I am lifting you and your families up in prayer, asking for courage, strength, safety, comfort and peace. May God bless and keep you, and may you feel His loving arms around you as He strengthens you. Thank you very much.
Thank you for protecting democracy. My son is adopted from Donetsk; we love Ukraine, Zelensky and you. We are working hard so that we can support you again. Spasybi for all that you do. Please be safe.
Thank you for your courage, service, and sacrifice, from a grateful US Air Force veteran. May your difficult struggle for freedom and democracy bring justice and peace for the great people of Ukraine.
I support you. I am a retired military lawyer whose job included telling commanders not to commit war crimes. I see Ukraine suffering from war crimes. Stay strong.
God bless you all. You are true heroes. Semper Fidelis, Retired Master Sergeant, USMC.
I was fortunate to spend time in Ukraine this year. I will try to get back as soon as I can.
I wish I could do more. Please know that there are 3 flags on our little rural road. Many of us are pushing hard to support candidates in next month's vote who recognize the need to support Ukraine. Sending best wishes for your safety.
Slava Ukraini! We Canadian veterans support you!
Never stop fighting until the enemy is beaten. Donated to you with respect on the Feast Day of St. Michael, St. Gabriel and St. Raphael. 🙏
We are with you. Do not give up the fight. I wish I could go fight, but I'm too old at 83.
Stay safe, my brothers and sisters. From a former U.S. Army medic, RVN 1969-70 and Desert Shield/Desert Storm 1990-91. Peace be with you all.
Slava Ukraini! Semper Fi!
I am a retired Environmental Health Inspector. I worked 36 years for the Salt Lake County Health Department in Utah. I would like to see a system to send sanitation kits to you guys and gals in the field. I am proud to send these first aid kits, just embarrassed that I took so long. We do not get much information about your lost brothers and sisters in this war, and I hope this program reduces the number. Remember to support each other emotionally as well as physically. Take care.
I fought alongside the Hmong hill tribes in Laos during the early 1970s. I never forgot their strength, which is just like yours. Godspeed against the enemy!
This is a gift for Chip DeLine, in honor of his birthday. In support of Ukraine, an individual first aid kit has been donated to White Stork. Chip and his wife Dottie, along with us, appreciate all of Ukraine's brave defenders on the front lines. Thank you for all you do, day in and day out.
Sending this in honor of Nadia.
We are in a mess here in America, but many of us do what we can in spite of the regime. Please keep faith in your people. You have amazing courage, wonderful ways with technology, and great pastries!
As an American, a democrat, and one who visited Ukraine, Kyiv, and Babi Yar in 1988, I suffer everytime a life is lost in Ukraine. God save you, and may America return to the righteous and save Ukraine.
Hello, I’m not sure if you will be reading this in a time of rest or in a time of emergency but my heart goes out to ALL of you fighting for your freedom and future. I’ve seen lots and lots of the frontline footage, even the hard to watch videos that most couldn’t stomach and I salute ALL of you. I’m 34 and from the US trying to help in any way that I can. Thank you for changing my perspective on what there is to be thankful for in this life. I wear the Ukraine colors here in the US anytime I can. May God be with you on the battlefield and at this time.
You are the Heroes of our time. Prayers this nightmare ends soon and the stolen children are returned to their real families.
You are the defenders of freedom. Thank you for what you do. God bless all of you.
You are the most important, and heroic, defenders of democracy in the present time.
Blessings, Peace and Love to the defenders of Ukraine.
America is on your side. Keep fighting to save Democracy.
Thank you for defending the future of Europe.
Your courage and resolve to stand against the destroyers of self government is a testament to the human spirit. God bless all of you. A friend in the USA.
Thank you for your service to Ukraine. Thank you for your service to humanity.
"Keep on keeping on."
I'm sorry that I can only afford two kits because I'm old and retired, I know it not much. I am a retired registered respiratory therapist. If you need someone with my experience let me know and I will come. God bless you all and my prayers are with you.
Hello guys. I am Ukrainian, now living in Canada. I dream to go back to my country. I admire you, stay safe! Thank you for everything you are doing for our country.
I salute your courage, your dedication to the life and freedom of the Ukrainian people, and hope that you will know peace in your future. If our next elections go as I hope they do I also hope that my country will stand with you to bring that long awaited peace.
I know that the United States' commitment has not been enough, but as a US Citizen who lived through much of the cold war I fully support your fight to remain independent of Putin's atrocities.
The people of the US stand with you. Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦
I see the videos of the brave soldiers fighting to keep your freedom for yourselves and future generations. I look forward to the collapse of Russia. I am former military myself. Keep giving them Hell!
I support you the best I can by donating. I am a retired medic here in Pennsylvania. My prayers are with you.🙏🏼
Love to all Ukrainian people from North Dakota as you struggle to maintain your independent country against an evil tyrant. Much love and continued prayers to all.
What an inspiration you are! Please know that you are loved.
To my beautiful and amazing sisters and brothers in Ukraine. Please know that You Are LOVED, that your plight is in the thoughts of people around the world every day. Stay strong and stay safe. All my love ❤️❤️!!
This donation is in honor of Michael’s birthday. A friend who, like me, supports the efforts of Ukraine's soldiers and civilians as they fight for independence and their homeland. We pray for an end to this war. God bless.
I support your fight for freedom against Putin. I started a monthly donation of IFAKs to help save lives on the frontlines. I am a US Air Force Veteran but I never was in a hostile fire situation. I respect your courage being on the frontlines.
I am Canadian. My hometown Ontario had mix of immigrants, from Italy, Poland, Ukraine and Czechia. We all played together and were able to sample each others cultures. So in my heart I have fond memories of those days and that is why I have supported Ukraine since Putin invaded. And now we battle Trump and are standing firm against his failed presidency. Take heart and keep fighting tyranny. May God keep you safe from harm.
I pray that supplies provided by the USA continue to flow.
We are with you and care. your are NOT alone in this defense of your country attacked by a brutal tyrant, we are with you.....Semper Fi. US Marine Corps Veteran
You're an inspiration to the rest of the world. Please be safe and know that you are loved and appreciated.
I deeply regret Mr. Trump's abandonment of your cause. He buries my country in shame! If I could, I would contribute toward purchasing weapons.
Thinking of you guys all the time. Long uphill pull. Stay tough. Hope the money helps you in some way.
Thank you for your bravery in defending freedom for all of us. Happy Independence Day--next year in Crimea! Glory to Ukraine! Glory to the Heroes!
We in America are thinking of you every day. Free Ukraine 🇺🇦
Even with all the crap going on in the US - you are not forgotten and you set the example of true patriots and pursuit of freedom against tyranny and insanity. Fight on - you will be victorious
I will see you when you get home. Until then, God bless you and all who stand with you. With friendship, admiration and love.
With humble gratitude I provide this Life Saving kit. You are fighting not only for Ukraine's freedom, but for freedom in the entire world! My prayers are with you.
You are loved and supported by the people of the United States. Always in my prayers🙏💕
I am retired US Army and support Ukraine’s success in the war with Russia. I am sorry that the current US administration is not supporting Ukraine in every way possible. I will encourage US politicians to provide better support for Ukraine.
Thank you for your bravery and persistence in the face of such unrelenting threats and damage.
Hello, Gallant soldiers of Ukraine, You are the David and Russia is the Goliath. Keep hitting them in the head, because that is all they understand. Slava Ukraine!
To the Ukrainian people… we love you. We in the U.S. are with you. We think of you often. And admire you greatly for courage, never giving up and helping each other.
I hope that the two first aid kits donated will save two lives. I support you, and that you will prevail. --Rochester, NY (USA)
This kit comes to you from the son of a WWII US Army Medic. God bless you.
I can speak for my family and friends that we continue to be heartbroken for all you are having to endure. And at the same time how remarkable and courageous you all are. We are behind you and wishing for you and know that you will succeed in the end to preserve your country. We are sending you much love.
