A central Illinois non-profit is raising money to help a pair of displaced Ukrainian families.

Jerry Johnson is the President of the Decatur Rotary Club and told Regional Radio on the WHOW Morning Show Friday they have been raising money for a few weeks to help a pair of single mothers displaced by the conflict in Ukraine.

According to Johnson, Rotary International has helped lead the charge to find stability for Ukrainians displaced by the conflict with Russia. He explains the Decatur Rotary Club put together a committee to find a couple of families to help.

Johnson indicates the Decatur Rotary Club is very pleased to report they are over halfway to their goal of raising $100,000 to help these families.
