Tamara Moldon is working with non-governmental organizations to source, gather, sort, pack and ship supplies to the war-torn nation.
A registered nurse in Coquitlam who fled from Ukraine as a child is helping her home country as it battles Russian forces.
"Each organization has unique strengths and capabilities, and I am honoured to work on whatever project I can most effectively support," Moldon told the Tri-City News. Last month, Moldon saw images from army medics near Kherson who got the donated stretchers, wheelchairs and an ultrasound machine that were shipped by sea container.
To date, Moldon has brought in more than $2 million worth of medical and surgical items for the three organizations.
