Auction Description
Project Hoot originated at a Studio MM Architect offsite in April. We designed and built four custom owl houses that are currently being displayed at Field and Supply in Kingston, NY and are up for auction here.
There is a substantial Ukrainian population in the Hudson Valley that has been mobilizing to provide aid where it is most needed. In conversation with local Ukrainian Americans, it was decided that all donations will be split between two organizations, Help Ukraine 22 Operation Palyanytsya and Razom for Ukraine.
Help Ukraine 22 Operation Palyanytsya is a humanitarian aid effort that was born out of the current invasion. A team of Americans and Ukrainians are working to identify gaps in immediate assistance for Ukrainians in need. They are focusing on offering shelter and aid directly to impacted civilians, organizing rescue operations from impacted districts, and resupplying critical medical aid. They have successfully delivered food and hygiene products to the Donbas region, which has been cut off from typical supply chains. Many of their efforts are focused primarily on mothers with small children, single elderly people and those with disabilities. Operation Palyanytsya is administered by a US non-profit and supported by partner NGOs and on-the-ground projects in Ukraine.
Razom for Ukraine was initially born out of the 2014 demonstrations in Maidan, Ukraine and in resistance to the Russian annexation of Crimea. As primarily New York based Ukrainian expats and Ukrainian Americans organized protests and raised emergency support funds, they formalized their efforts into an organization they named Razom. Razom means “together” in Ukrainian and “serves as a constant reminder of the community that it takes to create, build and do, to stay the path towards a more prosperous and democratic Ukraine”. Razom has extensive experience organizing aid to Ukraine, providing both emergency aid during the 2014 conflict and during the current occupation. They also support educational development initiatives during periods of relative peace, including cross-cultural programs in STEM fields, art and politics. Currently, Razom is engaged in an emergency response, sending medicine, hospital supplies and emergency response supplies to Ukraine. They actively collaborate with on-the-ground organizations, including Kryla Nadiyi (Wings of Hope), Euromaidan-Warszava, and Ukrainian Education Platform to direct aid where it is needed most.
