Story
Have you seen the footage of the little Ukrainian girl singing in a bomb shelter '..cold never bothered me anyway..'. Or that boy who quietly cried in a car because he left his 'papa' behind to help Ukrainian heroes. A boy who walked for miles to the safety of another country on his own, because his parents had to stay and fight? Swaddled babies in the cold, kids looking through the train windows at their family members staying behind, boys and girls still sheltering in Ukraine or dealing with the unknown in neighboring countries. 7.5 million Ukrainian children!!! Every single one of them with their own big story and innocent heart. Exhausted, scared, in real danger of being killed, injured or suffering severe emotional distress. Amid freezing temperatures, power cuts and food shortages, every day is a struggle to survive. They need urgent help accessing shelter, food, medical help.
Gig For Ukraine is a fundraising campaign and music event to help Ukraine. Gig For Ukraine is a big group of people who want to help: musicians, the venue, organisers, support team and YOU and your friends. Even if you can't attend the music event, you can support the fundraising with your kind donations on this page. Please spread the word as far as you can.
All the funds raised and proceeds of the music event will go to the charity 'Save the Children' who are delivering lifesaving aid to vulnerable Ukrainian children and their families.
The music event will be held on the 24th March 7pm in Forum Music Centre, Darlington. https://www.facebook.com/events/3142864919324330/
Let's all try to raise funds to give hope to those little singing brave innocent hearts - the Ukrainian children.
Thank you for your kindness and generosity!!
