“These supplies are needed all over Ukraine and will save many lives,” Igor Markov said Monday afternoon in front of a cargo jet at Sea-Tac Airport.

Markov is the Director of Nova Ukraine, one of the groups that coordinated the airlift. The Ukrainian Association of Washington State, the Ukrainian-American Cultural Association of Oregon, and Ukrainian Student Association at Stanford University partnered in obtaining and sorting the hundreds of boxes of supplies.

“People all over the greater Seattle area, in Washington state, people all over the West Coast have come together to ship this life saving aid to Ukraine,” said Katya Sedova of the Ukrainian Association of Washington State.
