It has been a couple of months since I last wrote to you all and I hope that I have not missed anyone on the ever growing list of supporters.
It is now almost 12 months since this war began in Ukraine and it is still going unfortunately.
We have come to the end of our initiative for now. I have done a "final" newsletter for your perusal.
My main problem is work and lots of it is not Rotary related, such is life.
Anyhow my sincere thanks to all of you who contributed and supported the Sunflower Seeds for Ukraine above all our thanks to Doug Bruckner for the seeds last March!
Yours in Rotary
PDG John Glassford

This is probably the final newsletter that I can edit and prepare. Over Christmas and New Year I
had a lot of work on and unfortunately Rotary had to take second place to our business.

All we can do is marvel at the courage of the Ukraine people and continue to help in whatever
way we can.

How much was raised? I do not know nor is it important. The seeds have been sown, in more
ways than one, and I have a couple of photos to share with you.

Obviously we cannot stop and if any of you want to continue or pass the baton to others do not
hesitate to use the tools that we created for the project. Just drop me an email and I will help.
