Dear Friend —



Long Beach continues to stand with the people of Ukraine as they fight to protect their homes and democracy in the face of an unprovoked military invasion by the Russian government. In the past days, we've lit up our city landmarks in the blue and yellow of the Ukrainian flag, and our thoughts remain with the millions of people who have been impacted as this war drags into its second week.



We've also partnered with CSULB to support international students from Ukraine and those affected in the region through their Student Emergency Fund for Food and Housing. Our community has a long history of welcoming and supporting immigrants and refugees and immigrants seeking safety in the United States, and we're proud to continue this legacy through these efforts.



If you are able, please consider donating to support our international students at this link <[link removed](S(0qtmaxbbnvtoaym1o4rcdltp))/?fbclid=IwAR03gedYpi5uxdUYd4E0PZcmDoDHShaGLjEl0bvkTZJsXN_7Kg8Vfy_UhYc> by entering your donation in the area indicated for Student Emergency Fund: Food & Housing Security.



CSULB's Student Emergency Fund for Food and Housing helps to support students so that they can continue to safely pursue their studies in our city, and we're using it to ensure the international students impacted by Russia's invasion of Ukraine have the assistance and resources they need.



Thank you,



Mayor Robert Garcia
