CHARITABLE GIVING OPPORTUNITIES
SRS: We Stand With Ukraine, Support Today! - More than 3 million people, most of them women and children, have evacuated their homes in Ukraine to flee the ravages of war forced upon them and their country. When you make a donation to We Stand With Ukraine, One Family One Fight, you help provide Ukrainian refugees with food, shelter, clothing and other much needed essentials as they face the daunting challenge of starting over in a new country with little more than what they can carry. For each donation made to SRS Raise the Roof Foundation and Heritage Cares for Ukraine assistance, you can also select your choice of a specially designed We Stand with Ukraine hat or shirt.
