About this listen
When Russia invaded Ukraine, Natalia Vilcu could hear the airstrikes. She lives in Chișinău, the capital of Moldova. Through the air, the city is less than a hundred miles from Odessa in Ukraine, one of the first places Russian forces hit.
Natalia is the president of a foundation called Life Without Leukemia. It’s part of an effort called SAFER Ukraine. St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and ALSAC, its fundraising and awareness organization, have played a coordinating role in that effort, helping to establish an umbrella of support throughout Europe and even into North America.
St. Jude Inspire podcast host Geoffrey Redick talks with writer Kristina Goetz about Natalia’s experiences helping pediatric cancer patients leave Ukraine to continue treatment.
