Many civilian structures are being heavily damaged by Russian rocket attacks and local USAR resources are unable to keep up.Then, when he found out that aid workers on the ground wouldn’t know what to do with the supplies, he decided to take some volunteers to Ukraine and pitch in.They’re raising the funds needed right now.Eric Hille is an Engineer with the San Miguel, California, Fire Department.
