Virtual car boot sale to help support Ukraine

A virtual car boot sale is taking place this weekend to raise money for the Ukraine crisis. 

It's being hosted on Facebook by Jo Gregory from The Hummingbird Project (pictured). 

All you have to do is upload your items, sell them, and then donate the money to the Hub’s Ukraine Crisis Appeal via PayPal or bank transfer. 

Anything can be sold between 10am on Saturday 12 March and 6pm on Sunday 13 March. 

All 100 per cent of the donations are going to buy medical and essential aid through their charity partners in Ukraine and the borders.

The Hummingbird Project is also funding the extraction of orphans from Ukraine, as well as funding groups who are transporting families with children to safe zones. 

Every penny will go directly and immediately to where it will help the most.
