Story
I'm fundraising to support the DEC Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal.
We are running a month long painting competition here at Mirfield Miniatures, which we will publicise through our Facebook page www.facebook.com/mirfieldminiatures. More details of prizes to come via that page. We are looking for a minimum donation of £10 to enter the competition, and we will provide a 3D print of a shield and iron halo which can be used to convert a 28mm model (a Space Marine or similar), which we then require you to paint and return a picture of the model by 30 April 2022.
Thanks to Adam Kaczmarek for supplying the file (available to print at
https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/game/ukraine-shield-and-halo) and the inspiration for this project.
Look out for related auctions of models/armies via the Facebook page to support this project.
Why raise funds for Ukraine? Heavy fighting, shelling and air strikes across Ukraine have had devastating consequences. Already, over two million people have fled their homes to escape intense conflict in Ukraine. Leaving behind loved ones, livelihoods and almost everything they own, they need shelter, food, and water. People are losing their homes and lives, essential services like water and healthcare have been hit and temperatures have dropped below zero. Please support my fundraiser to help reach those in urgent need in Ukraine and neighbouring countries. With your help we can support ActionAid and the DEC in scaling up their response and help families to stay warm and protect women and girls. - £10 could provide essential hygiene supplies for 1person for one month - £50 could provide blankets for 4 families to keep them warm - £100 could provide emergency food for 2 families for one month
