Canada's National Ukrainian Festival is hosting a fundraising BBQ outside their office to celebrate Ukrainian Independence Day from 11-2 tomorrow. President Kayla Gillis says that $2 from every order will be donated to UHelpUkraine, which is a Canadian organization that supports the Ukrainian Ministry of Defence.
"We need to make sure that our community and our organization is still supporting, whether it be the cause to help Ukraine or to help bring the families into the Parkland community. It's just something that we feel as a Ukrainian Organization we need to keep going and striving towards helping everybody through all these times."
Gillis says the rest of the money raised will go towards next year's festival. CKDM's Cory Lafontaine will be on location at the BBQ tomorrow.
