And now, 2026 …

Three cheers to you, postcard warriors!

More than 40,000 postcard messages of support have traveled from Australia and Canada branches to the front lines in Ukraine. That’s a WHOLE LOTTA LOVE! Дякую! THANK YOU!

Three cheers to Ukraine’s postal services! There’s the national postal service, UkrPoshta, and a private [courier-oriented] service, NovaPoshta. They make sure your postcards get to home base in Ukraine.

And three cheers to Tamara at home base in Ukraine and to the legion of volunteers who gather, pack and distribute your postcard messages to Defenders at the front lines. Including ТИ НЕ ОДИН UA– You are not alone UA.

Let’s keep the momentum going!

Did you know … WWI lasted just over four years?

Did you know … WWII dragged on for six years?

It’s almost four years since the full-scale invasion of Ukraine. More than a decade since Russia has been chipping away at Ukraine, killing Ukrainians, bombing homes, schools, hospitals and infrastructure. The recent 28-point [capitulation] plan presented to Ukraine did not guarantee peace, nor dignity, nor freedom, nor justice for Ukrainians. We’ll see how things evolve in the coming months …

You, dear postcard warriors, have been doing a *great* job! Every message that you write from your heart onto that little postcard travels half-way round the world to land in the hands of a Defender, reaching their heart and filling it with warmth, love and care.

It’s essential that we keep up the momentum as the four-year anniversary since the full-scale invasion is just around the corner on February 22nd.

Also, … consider taking a few moments to write to your political leaders. Even if only one. They need to know what we, the people whom they represent, want of them. 

1. Write a letter to your federal representative reminding them that you and your family and friends support Ukraine. You expect nothing less from your political representatives.
2. Write a letter to your federal representative telling them that you support the need for increased weapons in Ukraine. Postcards go a long way to boost morale. Weapons go further to protect Ukraine’s people from daily shelling of homes, schools, hospitals and infrastructure.
3. Save some money from a few cups of coffee and donate it to a credible charity that supports humanitarian aid or medical aid in Ukraine. For instance, the Canada-Ukraine Foundation.
4. There is a growing need for prosthetic support for veterans and for civilians of Ukraine, including children. The article, “Five ways to support Ukrainian War Veterans” includes ways to help fund prosthetics.

Thank you for your continued support of Ukraine and Best Wishes to all for good health, joy, and lasting justice and peace in Ukraine in 2026!
