We have one more plane ticket! This is for a Kiwi medic who paid her own way to fly home with Kane Te Tai because according to Maori belief, they cannot make their final journey alone.

Mykola and Roman both lost a leg fighting for Ukraine. They arrived in the USA for Kind Deeds to fit them with prosthetics and then they will return to the front line.

Olga and Mina were best friends in Ukraine. Their husbands stayed to fight or supply the front line while they left with their children. They ended up in Spain with no way to support themselves.

We let you name a stove so why not let you name our van as well! Right now it says we are exterminations...in German. So we need to fix that.
