Canadians help Ukrainian refugees in the tent of the Two-tailed Dog Party in Budapest!

Although they do not speak Ukrainian, nor Hungarian, they could still provide much-needed help since the scale of the crisis is so large that there is always a need for people who help.

They are currently working in the tent of the Hungarian Two-tailed Dog Party (MKKP).

“We have organised the trip here out of the blue, but we knew deep in our hearts that it was the right thing to do,” Robbie told Telex.

Trevor MacDonald had worked as a member of an accident cleanup crew before, and he always wanted to do volunteer work – he even considered joining the Ukrainian army.

Robbie Walker has never done any volunteer work before, but his brother, who had received medical training and is currently doing service in the Ukrainian Armed Forces, inspired Robbie to help.
