The shop’s owner said this is a special cause for them because they know what's it's like to leave a country in the middle of a crisis.

MID-CITY, LOS ANGELES -- Amid the war in Ukraine, a Los Angeles business, Amazing Piñatas in Mid-City, is showing their solidarity for Ukrainians with piñatas and paper flower bouquets.

The owner, Lorena Robletto, said this is a special cause for them because they know what's it's like to leave their country in the middle of a crisis. "I came from Nicaragua. We had a horrific war in the '70s," said Robletto."I lost most of my childhood friends ... it touched my heart." The piñata shop is selling handmade heart-shaped piñatas and bouquets of 20 roses in the colors of the Ukrainian flag for $50 each.

"Some people can hang the hearts at their home or right in a business area so can we start telling people, sending a message 'Let's do something,'" said Robletto.
