THE MARCH OF HOPE
Berlin
Dear Friends,
FOR THOSE IN FLIGHT FROM UKRAINE
Like so many, I’ve been battling a sense of powerlessness since the invasion of Ukraine. As the days have passed it has coupled itself with both anger and a sense of dread about what is to come.
On returning to Berlin I went on the march last Sunday and was moved by the incredible show of unity. Society’s eye had been sharpened by the aggression on our continent.
I felt my own frustration shift into a resolve to action - similar to how I felt before the fundraising during my “Boat for Sara” campaign in 2016.
I have been humbled to raise 25K with you all for refugees over the last years. I am turning to you once again in the hope we can raise 5K more at this urgent time.
In mind are the vulnerable who not only carry the emotional burden of leaving home but also those they love facing a merciless enemy.
I know first hand how inconceivably bitter the cold is in the East from travelling the Trans Siberian Express in winter 2015.
We need to help in whatever way we can - right now - because it will get worse.
The only thing I know - you have to do whatever you can, no matter how small. If you can alleviate the suffering of one, that is everything.
Please help by contributing to this fundraiser for Choose Love - my most trusted charity.
Your money goes directly to the welfare of Ukrainian refugees.
Finally I am working on initiatives which I will announce to support the fundraiser in the coming days. But for now the imperative is to get started.
Thank you for everyone, lets do whatever we can.
Love Jim
p.s this builds on my fundraiser last year and is part of my broader goal to raise 20K for Choose Love
