Well, said person just placed an order for a 7.5kw generator. It should be here by the 16th!!!

We're still working out the details, but it's looking like we're going to be tossing this in the truck for Dr. Julia on our Christmas run!!!

Fingers crossed, y’all.

I still can't believe that it happened... i'm still in shock... it's just... WOOOOWWWW!!!!

Fingers crossed and toes too smiley

At this point, I'm crossing my eyes and legs too! laugh

We had another arrival for our Soldiers' Christmas Care Package!

 

 

We have nearly $550 sitting in our bank account right now from two very generous donors on the Kyiv Independent's discord server that will be added to the Soldiers' Christmas gifts too!

Stuff is super frantic right now.  Mrs. Hungary is shopping as we speak.  Paypal is moving the Rehab center's money, and I still have e-mails from VikkiDp I haven't looked at yet!

That's amazing on the generator! My only concern would be if the 7.5k might actually be too large and/or heavy for her mobile use in some way. But even if so, I'm sure she'll find a way to put it to work one way or another. If there was ever any doubt about the resourcefulness of the Ukrainian people, there is none now.

It's 100kg, but we had the same concern.  We got a unit with wheels,but we figure a "two man lift" will be the way forward in a pinch.

Here are your raffle prizes, all lined up and ready to go to their new homes. You still have a little time left to contribute to this run if you haven't yet. That's all it takes to qualify!

Reminder: first prize for biggest donation on this run is the Ghost of Kyiv (I had to order this one from Yurp as the US distributor doesn't carry it). Second place is The Tractor Wins, which we'll give to the second-highest contributor. Winners of the other three will be chosen at random. Prizes and shipping are on me as my way to thank you for supporting Bill's work.

Letsgoletsgoletsgoletsgoletsgo!
