Most people are spending Christmas today wrapped up in family, food, warmth, and a little peace — and you deserve every bit of that.

But while we’re doing that, Oleksandr is doing something that should stop all of us in our tracks.

On Christmas Day, he filled his truck with generators and humanitarian aid and headed straight into the hardest-hit areas — Kharkiv and Donetsk — where families are living through darkness, cold, and constant fear.

That’s what a real hero looks like. Not someone who talks about courage — someone who drives it into the danger zone, one generator at a time, so children can sleep with heat, so parents can charge a phone and call loved ones, so elderly people can make it through another night.

Watch this video. Share it. And if you can, please help us back Oleksandr up — because heroes like him shouldn’t have to carry this alone. Any dollar helps. We keep Ukraine alive by showing up for the people who refuse to give up.

From my family to yours: Merry Christmas. And from our community to Oleksandr — thank you for reminding the world what humanity looks like.
