Nearing the one-month mark of Russia's invasion into Ukraine, many Ukrainians have been forced out of the raided country. Most escapees fled to western countries including Hungary, Moldova, Poland, Romania, and Slovakia.

Executive Director of Midwest Food Bank, Tara Ingram, says the charity has partnered with Convey of Hope, who has a warehouse location in Poland. The shipment will depart Morton today, sending 240,000 Tender Mercies meals for the refugees of Ukraine.

The cost of delivery will run for $60 thousand. For those who wish to help, financial donations give Midwest Food Bank the flexibility to quickly and efficiently respond to the needs of the victims.
