Our Latest Updates: Travel Authorized For Two Families From Mariupol

/ May 19, 2022

We have some great news from Homeland Security: travel authorization has been approved and you are now authorized to travel to the United States under the Uniting for Ukraine (U4U)

Family #1

Hennadii R. (39. male)
Yuliia R. (32y . female)
Nazar R. (y. boy)
Mykyta R. (4y. boy)
Avdiy R. (11 months boy)

Family #2

Volodymyr H. (30y. male)
Karyna H. (25y. female)
Ivan H. (4y. boy)
Tymofii H. (ty. boy)

We are imploring assistance on behalf of these two families, a total of 9, from Mariupol Ukraine.

They fled from Mariupol after experiencing the tragic horrors of the war in Ukraine. They had to pass the stressful Russian checkpoints, with constant shelling over their heads, surrounded by tanks, mined roads and burning military equipment.

They have escaped into Latvia and from there to Germany and are seeking to come to the USA to be together with their sister Hanna Pikul.

Hanna has been living here not long enough to support this need. She already hosts another Christian family from Mariupol, who called her crying out for help. She couldn’t say no. Hannah’s family (9 kids on her own) borrowed money to purchase tickets for them.

For more than a month, Hanna was worried about her family trapped in Mariupol having no news from them. Then she finally received a call from her brother and sister saying that only by God’s mercy and prayers they are still alive. Their homes are totally destroyed and there’s absolutely nothing left.

Now, when they are authorized to travel to the United States under the Uniting for Ukraine (U4U), we need financial help to purchase their flight tickets, pay rent for a few months, purchase drivable cars, and basically help them start over their lives from ground zero. Please Support Us!

If you’re willing to help these particular families, please make a note during the donation.

Thank you for your willingness to help! May God bless your homes and families, according to His riches and glory.

May God bless America for opening its doors to these families and other Ukrainian refugees.
