A local High River couple are taking in donations for the displaced people of Ukraine.

Rob and Cathy Bennington have been collecting items to send on a plane to Ukraine on Tuesday March 22.

Rob says they've been getting donations of "dry goods, food - things like energy bars are great, toiletries - those kinds of things, socks. The typical kind of things that go to people that are displaced."

And Hi-Fab Transport have stepped up and will transport the donations up to the Edmonton International airport for the flight to Ukraine.

You can still donate items before then and Rob's requested you reach out to him and Cathy through their Facebook pages.
