2 events Saturday to aid Ukraine war victims, refugees
JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (WJHL) — Two events in Johnson City on Saturday will raise funds for people affected by the war in Ukraine.
Our Savior Lutheran Church, 212 Sunset Drive, hosts a bake sale featuring traditional Ukrainian baked goods and desserts from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Proceeds benefit KoloHUB, a Tennessee nonprofit whose leaders regularly travel to Ukraine to meet and deliver essential aid to people in need there.
At 4 p.m., Fischman Gallery (133 Commerce St.) will host 'Voices of Hope: A Concert For Peace' featuring young musicians from the community, including three Ukrainian children, playing a selection of classical music. Donations from the event will benefit 'Vols for Ukraine.' The Johnson City-based non-profit provides temporary emergency assistance to families displaced by the war and living in the Tri-Cities.
Fischman Gallery is also donating proceeds of all its February art sales to Vols for Ukraine.
