This evening I attended Sonya: A Sunflower Network Project, an opening reception benefit. This benefit was hosted by the Sunflower Network, a registered 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization that is focused on providing direct and essential aid to Ukrainians in need. By connecting global partners with local trusted relationship they are able to ensure that the needed and proper supplies are able to find their way into trusted hands within the country.

The Sunflower Network has to this date delivered over $1,000,000 in critical relief from 4×4 vehicles and ambulances to field medical supplies and hygiene products.

The mission of Sunflower Network is to create an organization that empowers individuals to get involved in volunteering through unique and personal channels.

This partnering includes retail giants who for example facilitated the donation of 95,000 bottles of much-needed hygiene supplies to recently liberated territories. In addition the organization is committed to creating a fundraising space to focus on Ukrainian arts and culture and the wars impact on it.

Below is some of the art work that was exhibited and that was done by Ukrainian Artists.
