The Ukrainian Patriot was started just five days after Russia's invasion of Ukraine, and since then, they've been able to gather countless non-lethal military supplies for people on the ground in Ukraine. Lana Niland's originally from Saskatoon and now lives in Kyiv, and she started the organization.
Talia Oleski is the local organizer, and she said that thanks to donations from people in the Parkland, they were able to buy the radios the organization needed.
We were able to recently purchase a van where we can go in a bring medical supplies to areas where other organizations might not be traveling to because it might be more of a dangerous area.
You can learn more about the organization, as well as donate, at their website here.
