Russia’s brutal and unprovoked war on Ukraine has prompted many people to show support for the courageous defense that the Ukrainian military and civilian population have mounted against their aggressor. From the blying of the Ukrainian flag all over town, to the display and wearing of those same colors, collections for humanitarian aid, and more, local people are showing support for the Ukrainians.
Sharon Howarth shared a photo of a painted rock she saw on the Fairhaven bike path that simply says “Pray for Ukraine,” and depicts the blue and yellow colors of the flag, with a sunflower, the national flower of Ukraine.
“Nice to see Fairhaven thinking about the poor Ukranians. There but for the grace of God go I,” wrote Ms. Howarth in an email.
