Saturday marks day 17 of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and Ukie Style Embroidery Art buzzed with activity from people shopping and dropping off support.
“It’s very inspiring, and I know that those people who come, they also feel inspired," said Olena Jacobs, Owner of Ukie Style Embroidery Art. "We hear it every day. The ways that Ukrainian people are defending their country, this movement, it’s so patriotic and so resilient."
Jacobs was able to restock after customers snapped up gifts like flags and ribbons to stand in solidarity with the people of Ukraine. “Some of my friends, Ukrainian people, actually brought their things from home, what they had, like souvenirs, and we are selling it because we are trying to raise as much money as possible,” said Jacobs. “Now we are just concentrating on the highest priority items, which are life-saving medical supplies, like wound care, injury care and painkillers, those kind of items,” said Jacobs.
