Lapidary Club Ukraine Fundraiser

Lapidary Club member Thuy Do has created a T-shirt logo inspired by Ukrainian refugees, who are struggling to survive since Russian forces invaded the country on Feb. 24.

Thuy is selling T-shirts, with all the proceeds (minus her cost) going to a charity that helps feed and care for Ukrainian refugees.

Her design was inspired by a photo she saw showing boys huddled and fearfully praying.

Thuy herself experienced fear while living in her home country as a youth.

Like others who have survived war, Thuy still bears the scarred memories and emotional wounds that result from living in a wartorn country.

The short-sleeve T-shirt, in both black and white, costs $15. People are welcome to donate above and beyond cost of the T-shirts.

The t-shirts come in sizes small to extra-large. People who want to purchase one can find Thuy in the Lapidary Room in Clubhouse 4 Monday-Friday from 9:30 a.m.-noon. Cash payment is preferred.
