A GoFundMe Fundraiser has been set up by his cousin to help the family through this tragedy.
Here is what she has written.
On June 22, my cousin’s family who lives in Ukraine lost their home due to a fire caused by a lightning strike. Everything burned down within minutes before fire trucks could even arrive. Praise God everyone was able to get out of the house safely before it was too late.
They’re a family of five and expecting another baby in a few weeks. The father, Oleg, is a hard working man who works full time and serves as a lead pastor voluntarily in his free time. Now they’re left with nothing except smoke damaged pots and pans!
Their community, family and friends are coming together to help with basic needs like food, clothing, shelter at the moment but it will take another decade to be able to rebuild their home. There’s no resources in Ukraine that can help them get back up faster. If you have it in your heart to help them by either giving anything or sharing this post it will be a blessing to this family!
All donations will go straight to this family!!!
Thank you so much for all your support!

I invite you to prayerfully consider making a gift to the family through this GoFundMe account. You can follow this link:
If you use social media, please consider sharing this link so that others can see it and give as well.
Thank you
(NOTE: GoFundMe keeps 2.9% of what is raised and $0.30 of every donation. Knowing this, if you would love to know that the family received $100 from you, consider giving $103.30 to offset the GoFundMe costs)
Update (6/26/20): I just learned that someone who knows the family and lives in the US will be traveling to Ukraine shortly, and can bring any financial donations collected. If you would like to avoid the GoFundMe fee, you can write a check to New Journey Church and put "Hutori Fire" in the memo line. All the money collected will go directly to the family. Thank you in advance for your generosity to this special family in this difficult time.
