An Escondido business owner raised $60,000 and packed 16 suitcases with medical kits and other items to bring to families displaced by the war in Ukraine. He also rented vans to transport refugees from camps in freezing cold temperatures to shelters.

Some never finding a place to stay. Nighttime is the worst for the young families. As Shumishyn puts it, they don’t know how to be refugees.Shumishyn is a part of it, and not just as a volunteer. He grew up in Ukraine and emigrated to the United States 20 years ago. His 9-year-old daughter Yeva lives in Odessa with his ex-wife.

The future weighs heavy on Shumishyn's mind and heart. Like many in Ukraine, he fears Russia’s next move may be nuclear. “We don’t really know if it’s possible, or not just the thought. I mean, what could be worse?" Shumishyn said. Shumishyn continues to raise money for a second trip planned two to three weeks from now. Next time he said he plans to take many more volunteers and more vans.

The focus will be supporting all those families that were barely feeding themselves but are now housing war refugees.
