Rotary Voices – A Rotaractor's Story Leaving Ukraine

 
As Rotaract representative Iryna Bushmina was in the car en route to Vienna from her home country of Ukraine, she had the idea to mobilize ERIC - Rotaract Europe.
 
Now her team of about 150 workers are working in four directions to provide aid to cities within Ukraine by:
 
  • Distributing truthful information about the situation in Ukraine.
  • Finding accommodations and hosts for Ukrainians in flight.
  • Sending humanitarian aid.
  • Securing financial support for those who need it.
RCOS members in person and via Zoom share good conversation, information and laughter during the March 30 meeting.
