Those who wish to support the victims of the war in Ukraine can do so by providing donations in Indianola today. Organizer Victoria Orbidan with the International Christian Church tells KNIA News dry good foods, clothing, hygiene, infant-care and childcare materials, and over the counter medicines such as Ibuprofen, in addition to cash or donations via cashapp. Orbidan also said we should help because we can.

“We have family there and we put ourselves in their shoes, and we see that they are literally fleeing their home and country, the place that they should be safe. They are leaving and they have nowhere to go, so we would like to support them in trying to feel safe in any way we can.”

The collections will be taken in the Grace Church parking lot at 108 N Jefferson Way from noon to 9pm.
