[Ohio-Talk] Great Concert in Support of Ukraine

[c16a19f at sbcglobal.net]

Happy Easter Colleen! I listened to the entire fundraiser while I was
preparing food for Easter and then washing dishes. 
It ended at 1:15 AM. They said that 111 artists participated in the event.
The total raised was just over $85 thousand dollars. Donations can still be
made, so that should increase a bit before all is said and done.

Hello Everyone,
I hope you got to participate in the Concert to raise Money for the Blind in
Ukraine and those who had to flee to other countries.
I didn't even think about it until it was mentioned but what about those who
have been blinded due to the war. I also took note of the blind children in
a school which was bombed. None of them were injured. I gather most of them
are orphans.
I wish I was twenty years younger. I would open my home to one of these
children who will need so much support in so many ways.
I am so proud of those from Ohio who sang or read poetry during the Concert.
I am really glad that a phone option was available for those of us who do
not do things online. I was able to pledge a donation and wait for someone
to call me next week.
You can still donate online or by phone.
I finally started my catnap at 11:25 p.m. I had to get up at 6 AM to get
ready for Mass.
If anyone knows how much money was raised and what time concert ended I
would like this information.
It would be so frightening to be in a place with so much damage in the
infrastructure. 
I am sure that most of us cannot even imagine such a horrific experience.
I know that our Prayers and generous support can make a difference.
Colleen Roth
