Kelly’s Angels Hugs for Ukraine Initiative

Kelly’s Angels Hugs for Ukraine Initiative

SARATOGA SPRINGS — Kelly’s Angels, Inc. announced that it is expanding its mission to include aid for local Ukrainian children, a new initiative dubbed “Hugs for Ukraine.” The program aims to support Ukrainian families with children who are now living in the Capital Region due to the ongoing war in Ukraine.

“Kelly’s Angels lives to bring smiles to the faces of children who are dealing with grief,” explained Mark Mulholland, founder and president of Kelly’s Angels. “As the war in Ukraine continues and some Ukrainian families affected by the war are relocating to our area, we thought it would a meaningful extension of our mission to provide grants to enable these Ukrainian children do something fun, whatever their hearts desire.”

Local schools, churches, and individuals are encouraged to nominate Ukrainian families with children who are now living in the Capital Region due to the war for a one-time grant. Applications are available at KellysAngelsInc.org/Ukraine.

“As a longtime Kelly’s Angels board member and the daughter of Ukrainian immigrants, I am especially proud to be an ambassador for the Hugs for Ukraine program,“ said Lydia Kulbida, WTEN TV news anchor. “We hope these grants can lift spirits of children affected by the war and let them know they are supported.”

The Kelly’s Angels Hugs for Ukraine program will run as long as needed, and there is no deadline for submitting applications. Questions can be emailed to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..
