These are great ideas. A RI furniture co collected tons of clothing, diapers,
medical supplies and toiletries. They had so much they had to turn people away.
It arrived in Warsaw yesterday. Jane

Sherie, I did see that - lots of creative ideas. Saw a short TV spot about
a Rockford middle school that came up with an idea in Social Studies class to
ask teachers to submit pictures of their pets. They then were made into
trading cards with bio of the pet and sometimes even a paw print. Then
students could get a trading card for each dollar they donated to help in the
relief effort. Became really popular with staff (and others) wanting the
trading cards (and to help out!) I think the idea behind Ukrainian beer
is because many (most??) of their breweries were switched over from producing
beer to producing Molotov cocktails.

There are a couple of Wisc breweries doing that as well. One or two in
Green Bay & one in Oshkosh. A good fundraiser!
And, another fundraiser is from the Door County Candle Co. A small
company owned by a Ukrainian lady & family decided to make a 16 oz candle in
the Ukraine colors with a vanilla scent in a glass jar for $29.95.
Initially she hoped to sell 300 & is donating all profits to a Ukraine
charity she is familiar with. As of this past weekend, she sent first
donation of $125,000 to the charity & has had over 30,000 orders. She was
featured on tonight’s David Muir national news on ABC. If you have any
interest, Google Door County Candle Company.

Any local beer drinkers in the group? Wishful Acres Brewery of Lena is
heeding the call from Ukraine to brew their beer recipes, sell them and
donate the money to Ukrainian relief.... Beer is in the fermentation
tank, probably ready this weekend. See yesterday's entry at 11:33 A.M.
