Two sisters lead push to help Ukrainian refugees secure housing in NYC

 Two sisters are raising funds to secure permanent housing for the thousands of Ukrainian refugees in New York who fled their worn-torn homeland following Russia’s invasion.

Lidya and Gabriella Oros founded the Ukrainian Habitat Fund, which held its first fundraiser at the Keuka Kafe on Wednesday to help mark Ukrainian Independence Day.

The hosts passed out traditional bread and salt and Ukrainian beer and wine was served, with proceeds going to the cause.

“It’s a bittersweet moment. We are raising awareness,” Lidya Oros said at the event in Forest Hills, Queens. “Thank God there are soldiers defending Ukraine.”

The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others. But it does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are twenty gods, or no god. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg.

Why are they holding fund raisers when illegal aliens from Mejico and the rest of the world who come through the southern border are given 5 star hotels to stay in?  This is clearly discrimination by NYC and the democrats.  They are always wailing about equity but when they have a chance to show the world that equity, they don't do it.  :tongue2:
