On October 23, 2022, Helping Hands for Ukraine hosted a Happy Hour Fundraiser at Jolly Pumpkin, Royal Oak for DTE Energy employees and vendor partners – Strategic Staffing Solutions, AHEAD, Prolifics, Neudesic, Slalom, Vectorform, and EY. Collectively, the event generated $17,653 through ticket sales, direct donations, auction items, raffle tickets, and Sunflower Sunrise Co purchases. The funds raised will be utilized to provide direct aid to orphanages in Ukraine, including rebuilding orphanage facilities and providing clothing for the orphaned children to keep them warm in the coming winter months. We couldn’t do this without your support and would like to sincerely thank all contributors for your generous donations and outpouring of support!

During our picnic on September 25, we were able to raise enough money to get 23 full winter uniforms for soldiers. This includes warm jackets, wool socks, thermal underwear, etc. These uniforms were sent to the military unit we have been supporting from the beginning of the war and hopefully will keep soldiers safe during winter.
