If you wish to help with the humanitarian efforts for the Ukrainian people, below are several websites that you can link to and donate money. The various organizations are helping in different ways with the challenges our Ukrainian sisters and brothers are facing. The email from Lutherlyn was someone that worked at camp and part of their family has had to relocate to other countries and are without any financial resources because the banks are closed in Ukraine.

Also don't forget about our items we are collecting for Lutheran World Relief, those kits are needed more than ever with all the refugees coming from Ukraine.

Good Morning Lutherlyn Family.

Igor and Elaina Kirpa (siblings) were on summer staff in the early 2000s. They are from Ukraine.

Marianne and Christoph Kasch were on summer staff (met at Lutherlyn) at the same time as Igor. They currently live in Germany.

Igor is a physician/surgeon in Ukraine. He is staying there to work in the hospital. His wife and children are on their way to Marianne and Christoph's house in Germany right now.

Elaina is on her way to family in Lithuania.

They could use your help. If you would like to contribute to an immediate need to help the Kirpa family seek refuge in Germany, you are invited to do so by clicking here.

This is a gift directly to Marianne and Christoph to welcome 2 adults and 5 children from Ukraine into their home indefinitely.

It is amazing how far and wide the Lutherlyn family extends across the globe.
