Visibility is Civic Duty with Mila Shelehoff, Yuliia Hryhorenko, Olena Vasylenko, and Anna Donoghue
Description
Yuliia Hryhorenko and Olena Vasylenko relocated their families to Central Oregon two years ago so that their children could be safe from war. They moved here through Uniting for Ukraine (U4U), a US government humanitarian parole program that allowed private US citizens to sponsor and help support Ukrainian refugees.
They are joined by Mila Shelehoff, Executive Director of Art Sprouts and Founder of Bend For Ukraine, a community initiative supporting Ukrainian families resettling in Central Oregon. Anna Donoghue also joins as translator.
