Donate for a chance to win an exclusive copy of “Shake Hands with the Devil” signed by Roméo Dallaire
In his haunting memoir “Shake Hands with the Devil,” General Roméo Dallaire bears witness to some of humanity’s darkest moments during the Rwandan genocide. His powerful testimony reminds us that even the bravest among us struggle when confronted with the horrors of war and the weight of human suffering. Today, we see similar courage in Ukraine, where ordinary citizens face extraordinary challenges in the wake of Russia’s brutal and unprovoked aggression. Like the stories documented in Dallaire’s book, the Ukrainian people’s resolve in the face of violence speaks to the resilience of the human spirit when confronted by those who would destroy it.
The CUF-UCC Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal continues to provide critical support to those affected by Russia’s violence. Your donation to our “Even the Brave Struggle” campaign directly helps provide crucial mental health support to the brave veterans whose lives have been upended by this unjust invasion.
