Friendswood Rotary Project to Help Ukrainian Refugees in WalesThe situation in Ukraine is in the national news every day. Many Ukrainians have been forced to leave their homes and their country behind. But where are those refugees going? And for how long? A partial answer is they are going to other continental European nations, the United States and Canada, and the United Kingdom (UK). As an example, the UK has taken in thousands of refugees. Those refugees are being housed throughout the UK, which consists of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. As a service organization, Friendswood Rotary has started a project to support the refugees in northern Wales. One might ask “Why Wales, how, and for how long?” Click the link for more information
