Music Lovers! Unite in helping Ukraine!
We are fortunate to live in countries that allow us to pursue financial success. I believe most of us on here has attained that to a degree that we are living relatively comfortably.
The Russian military is beginning to utilize all the massive firepower at its disposal. Since their offensive has bogged down, they are changing tactics. Their new tactic is to surround a city and shell it indiscriminately, inflicting as much human misery as possible. A rocket, missile and artillery shell doesn’t care if you are a soldier, old woman, or an infant. Neither does Putin.
When they unleash it like they did in Syria, it will be a humanitarian catastrophe not seen since the Second World War. Death and destruction on a massive scale.
Please, consider giving to a charitable organization to help.
We have so much. Give some of it to whom it will literally make a difference between living and dying. You will be saving a life. A life of someone loved. Just as you love.

This is the charity I used, but there are several more of your choice. International Red Cross, Save the Children, CARE, to name a few.
Please, let’s all do what we can to help.
These cities are under siege. Millions will need the bare necessities of water, food, shelter. And in winter. Surrounding countries are bracing and preparing for a massive influx of refugees. These countries also need our help. Your donations will go to alleviating these massive burdens. Such a wonderful outpouring of support for them from around the world. Let's be part of it. |
This thread, in which Tammy was gracious enough to allow happen, is 100% about helping our fellow human beings and nothing else. It is not a political debate. There are plenty of other forums for that. If you do not care enough to stay on topic and make a donation to help those in dire need, refrain from posting. |
You guys are great. But please, chill on the political stuff. Let’s keep this going. Every penny counts. I fear it will get much worse for Ukraine for quite some time before it gets better. Yes, they need the means to defend themselves, no question. It appears they are receiving it. We can help with the business of keeping innocents alive. Such a small and easy thing for us. But what an effect it will have! |
And yet again; This thread, in which Tammy was gracious enough to allow happen, is 100% about helping our fellow human beings and nothing else. It is not a political debate. There are plenty of other forums for that. If you do not care enough to stay on topic and make a donation to help those in dire need, refrain from posting.

@serjio , Enough of your nonsense. Your last statement is beyond ridiculous. If you don't care to donate to the legitimate charity of your choice so that we can alleviate some of the misery this unjust invasion is causing, that is your right. But, do not pollute this thread with what you perceive as your worldly, enlightened views. Start your own thread and see how far that gets you. Your bile is not welcome here. This thread is an exception. It is by special permission that it is allowed. It is not an outlet for your asinine accusations: "I think you (several people) have teamed up and are trying to seduce gullible people to transfer money to you (supposedly for humanitarian aid) - and then buy something for YOURSELF ..." |
@nonoise , Man, that's great. Thanks for the info. Yes, helping need not be exclusively through monetary donations. Words are some of the most powerful of tools at anyone's disposal. Let our voices also be heard.

STOP WITH THE POLITICAL BACK AND FORTH AND PETTY INSULTS! ENOUGH! SOME OF YOU CARE MORE ABOUT YOUR LITTLE TIT FOR TAT BACK AND FORTHS THAN HELPING PEOPLE LITERALLY STAY ALIVE. THIS ENTIRE THREAD IS IN PERIL OF BEING SHUT DOWN BECAUSE YOU ARE TOO IGNORANTLY SELFISH TO STAY ON POINT. IF YOU ARE NOT HERE TO SUPPORT THE CAUSE OF ALLEVIATING THE HUMAN MISERY THIS INVASION IS CAUSING, GO AWAY! CAN I MAKE IT ANY MORE PLAIN??! IT IS BY SPECIAL PERMISSION THIS THREAD EXISTS. YOU WHO ARE CAUSING DISSENT NEED TO GO ELSEWHERE!!!!!!!! |
I don’t care what your politics are. I don’t care what your geopolitical views are. I don’t care what side of history you believe. I care about doing what I can to help innocent people survive this mess. That is what this thread is about. That is all this thread is about. And yes, that would entail being like minded individuals who share a common belief in doing this. Please, again, donate to a charity of your choice if this is a cause you can get behind. If you don’t care to help or share a bit of support, you have the rest of this forum and the entire internet to explore. A heartfelt thank you to all you guys who took the time to donate and post a few kind words. What a positive difference it will make to those who are losing hope. |
Because of certain individuals here who simply could not respect the spirit of this thread, it is due to be shortly shut down. A huge thank you to all you kind and generous souls who took the time and contributed to alleviating some of the misery this invasion has caused and will continue to cause. Please continue to spread the word to help. A special thank you to Tammy for allowing it to stay up as long as it did so that we may do our small part to help.
