"Come home alive!", "Win!", "May the Lord take care of you! We pray for you!" - these are the slogans we can read on the huge Ukrainian flag donated to our foundation by soldiers fighting at the front.
The flag was prepared by Ukrainian citizens who wanted to give encouragement to those fighting at the front in Bakhmut. After a few months, the soldiers decided to donate the gift to our foundation as a sign of gratitude for the work we do for people in Ukraine.
The touching slogans on the flag form a litany full of pain:
"Glory to Ukraine! Glory to the Heroes of the Armed Forces!"
"Our Heroes, our Cats, come back alive! We love you <3"
"Our best! We are with you!"
"Come home alive! Be winners!"
"May the Lord take care of you! We are praying for you!"
"Be victorious!"
"We are with you!"
"Come back alive! Glory to the Heroes! Compatriots!"
"Come back with victory! We are all waiting for you! Thank you!"
"You are magnificent! May God protect and support you!"
"You are our Heroes!"
"The best in the world! We fall asleep and wake up thinking of you. Take care of each other"
"We love you! Thank you!"
"Ukrainian community in eastern Norway".
"Everything will be Ukraine! All Norway knows about you and is proud of you!"
"Glory to Ukraine! Glory to the Heroes!"
"You are for us there, and we are for you here. We will win!"
So far, we have hosted more than 160 Ukrainian women and men in Krzyżowa, but it is difficult to estimate exactly how many people we have helped. Thanks to the support of people of good will, we have been able to take part in many aid campaigns, including sending shipments of needed items to Ukraine. Therefore, we too - while thanking the fighting soldiers for their gift - would like to thank all those who have supported and continue to support our aid to the citizens of Ukraine immersed in war.
