Earlier this month Dr Uri raised over $30,000 for humanitarian charities working to support the people of Ukraine in their struggle for survival.

Unfortunately animals are also suffering from this terrible conflict. Here is a fundraiser for a Kyiv animal shelter that is struggling to care for an overwhelming tide of injured and starving pets who lost their humans. We have it on good authority that this is a legitimate fundraiser and would like to encourage our clients to make a donation to help care for these creatures who were soneone's beloved companion just 2 months ago.
