In episode 10, I welcome my guests Nataliia Kalantaienko and Karin Olson. Nataliia is 19 years old Ukrainian. She is a student of the international relations in Lviv University and Assistant to the CEO and Manager of the fundraising in the non-governmental organization, Ukrainian Volunteer Service. She and her family are helping to care for, and rescue abandoned and injured animals due to the War in Ukraine since the Russian invasion. She currently has 5 cats and a dog named Tyapa, that they rescued after the battle of Russian troops in her hometown and her and her family have remained throughout the invasion.
Nataliia’s work with the Ukrainian Volunteer Service includes a project where they are collecting clothes and other needed items for the elderly. You can learn more at the link below.
Another project they are working on is collected items for those within the occupied portions of Ukraine. You can learn more at the link below.
The organization has also created a Patreon campaign to gather needed donation. You can learn more at the link below.
