The Parkland Chamber of Commerce is the latest organization to donate to the Parkland Ukrainian Family Fund. They donated $1000 in Chamber Bucks, which will be given out to the families the fund is supporting.
Chamber Executive Director Stephen Chychota says they've seen great representation from the community, and the chamber just wanted to do its part.
"We're just trying to welcome them, and support them where we can." Said Chychota, "We have these Chamber Bucks available to us and working with these local communities, and just try to do that link for them."
Since it began, the Parkland Ukrainian Family Fund has raised over 200 thousand dollars, as well as many donations in kind. For more information on the fund, you can call Larry at 204-648-5904, or Karen at 204-648-3567.
