“I can’t stop a war, but I can help a family."
Shanya, who welcomed a Ukrainian family
"I have taken advantage of my voice and my skills to give back a little of all the help that I received to people who are currently living in the situation in which I was in."
Estuardo, a newcomer helping other newcomers
"What’s been wonderful about this experience is the number of people who’ve just wanted to join us, to participate, to help out…we’ve suddenly got this extended, wonderful community. It’s a great part of America, something that for many became rare - that sense of community."
