Maxxsonics is supporting the cause of aiding Hungary and Ukraine, led by the efforts of employee Mark Lieber.
Lieber, project and quality manager at Maxxsonics, went overseas this week on a mission to help those in need in those two countries, and he’s asking for the public’s help.
“I have decided to make one more trip to Hungary and Ukraine to support the Angels, Yuriy Melnyk, and to meet up with Zakhar in Kyiv,” said Lieber. “As I did with my trip in April last year, I am paying for my ticket out of my own pocket, so everything above that I raise will go toward the cause to help Ukraine win and its people survive.
“As a human being I am deeply concerned with what is going on in Hungary and Ukraine. The ongoing horrors that are being dealt to the people are beyond belief and unimaginable. Any support and help are greatly appreciated as so many of you have already made an incredible positive impact in many lives.”
Lieber’s mission entails:
- Taking supplies for the Armed Forces of Ukraine on behalf of Yuriy (the same group he took the last nine bags of aid for in September of last year).
- Taking a signed Ukrainian flag to his friend Illona in the AFU for her brigade fighting in the east.
- Supporting his two friends from Great Britain who have been delivering and handing out teddy bears to the children of Ukraine.
- Handing carry recognition awards for the Angels team on the ground in Ukraine. There are 15 teams working all over the country supporting a wide range of needs (from children’s hospitals, orphanages, food, clothing, generators and medical supplies).
- Lieber will also be fundraising for a night vision camera – so that he can help the medics evacuate the wounded from the front lines safely at night (as they can then drive without their lights on so as not to be seen).
- He is also bringing food and medical supplies while in Kyiv and plans on getting them where they need to go.
“These people truly have hearts of gold, and I’ve seen what they have accomplished,” Lieber said. “Any aid and support will certainly not go unnoticed and will be incredibly appreciated.”
