The Waldorf School of Louisville is painting sunflowers on postcards to send to a sister Waldorf school in Kyiv. Postcards are $5 each and the money raised will support Waldorf families opening their homes, teachers who have lost income because of closings and Waldorf emergency teams aiding Ukrainian children.

An emergency support fund is being coordinated by the Friends of Waldorf Education (Freunde der Erziehungskunt Rudolf Steiners e.V.), through which various and evolving needs of our Ukrainian friends can be addressed. We invite you to support these emergency efforts.
