Story
I have directed a documentary film about children of Ukraine for ITV this year. This film was produced by Renegade Pictures. But for me the relations with people I film never finish when the film is done. I am always in touch with the families and I try to help. I was so lucky to have my colleagues who worked on this film and who feel very close to these children and their families. After film was released, there was a huge interest from many people to help the children. So, me and my colleague Steve, decided to go to Ukraine before Xmas to visit kids and bring them some presents. Because of the recent Russian attacks, most of Ukraine is without electricity during this winter. So, together with presents, we are trying to raise money for their families to either buy power banks, power generators, warm cloths and etc to go through this winter. But, most importantly, we want to give these children some sort of joy. Me and Steve are setting off to Ukraine mid-December, so I hope that you will be willing to help us to raise funds for the Children of Ukraine.
