Hundreds of cards and artwork from school-aged kids in Utah were stowed on a plane Wednesday, set to be hand delivered to children fleeing Ukraine.A little over a week ago, Utah’s first lady, Abby Cox, put out a call to action for children to offer friendship and encouragement by way of cards and art.
Astle knows people in Krakow who are helping to shuttle refugees from the border, and will join them by driving a van for the next week, helping strangers in another country. He says he’s thankful he can take a week off from his job as the owner of the Melting Pot restaurant to help out. “The biggest message from my friends that are there now is that they’re just scared, and so having a friend from Utah that they’ve never met reach out will help the kids and obviously getting them to safety is a big help,” said Astle.
The cards aren’t the only delivery being made. The Beehive State is also delivering on its promise to send relief supplies, like clothing, blankets, and sanitary supplies.
