have sought refuge in Poland where Clodfelter lives with her husband, who’s stationed at the military base in Poznan.
Since moving to Poland, Clodfelter and her husband have attended Saint Nicholas Orthodox Church, and since the war broke out in Ukraine she said their congregation has doubled as the only Orthodox church in the area. “So then we started raising money,” Clodfelter said. “... We were able to raise just under $29,000 … and I have a feeling it might bump up over that because I have a couple of checks coming.”With the money she’s received they’ve purchased essential items like toiletries, food, and clothes for Ukrainians who were displaced and now living in Poznan. She said they’ve also purchased bedding and couches for families settling into new apartments.
She’s teamed up with a Ukrainian-owned bakery to disperse 100 pastries to the train depot where refugees first arrive in Poznan.
