The United Ukrainian American Relief Committee (UUARC) is calling for all persons of good will and kind heart in the Ukrainian American community to help those afflicted by floods in western Ukraine. Our Fellow Ukrainians!
As a result of the heavy rains from June 22 to June 23, 2020, the levels of many rivers have risen to very dangerous levels. In fact, the rivers still continue to rise in the Ivano-Frankivsk, Chernivtsi, Lviv, Zakarpattia and Ternopil regions, resulting in flooding of dozens of towns and villages, and thousands of houses, and destroying many roads and bridges. Countless have lost their properties and their savings, and are even unable to buy basic everyday items. Hundreds have been left homeless.
