LBC Boston raises $56,000 for Ukraine
Quincy, MA Margarita Kvacheva, CEO of LBC Boston, a diverse group of companies successfully managing real estate and business ventures, announced today she has raised over $56,000 for Sunflower of Peace to support Ukrainian citizens affected by the war. This could have not happened without the support of Temple B’nai Moshe that matched the first $20,000 of donations from this fundraiser.
“We employ both Ukrainian and Russian employees and want to show our support for not only our employees, but their friends and family in Ukraine. I do not support what Russia is doing and decided to raise money for Sunflower of Peace as they know how to get the help to where it is most needed,” said Kvacheva. “Many of our partners and vendors have contributed to our fundraiser, and we thank everyone for their generous donations. Every little bit helps and we hope to continue to raise money to help people in Ukraine.”
Sunflower of Peace Foundation is a Boston, USA-based 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. Its current mission is to support the people of Ukraine affected by the Russian military invasion. It collaborates with a global network of established organizations and institutions that are committed to helping Ukraine in this situation.
Due to the current crisis in Ukraine, Sunflower of Peace started a new fundraiser to provide medical and humanitarian aid that will be used by the paramedics and doctors in the areas that are affected by the violence in Ukraine. It is acquiring and distributing first-aid backpacks, medicine, medical instruments, and other means of survival that are saving hundreds of lives. These supplies meant the world to people affected by violence when Sunflower of Peace started its first fundraiser in 2015, and they mean the world to all Ukrainians now.
To donate, please visit the LBC Boston GoFundMe page.
LBC Boston is a diverse group of companies successfully managing both domestic and international projects in real estate and business ventures, including community development, healthcare, non-profit, venture capital, entertainment, hospitality, and food retail.
