Dmitriy Boyko starts every morning with a single text to his family in Ukraine: "How are you guys doing?" Boyko, born and raised in Kyiv, has been forced to watch from thousands of miles away as his cousins — one with a 4-month-old baby who fled to western Ukraine and another in Kyiv with her sick mother — suffer in fear amid theBoyko was 11 when he, his brother, his sister and his parents moved to the Bronx.
Another message from Kravetskaya: "We are alive. Today we are expecting a shooting...don't know anymore...they bombed the TV tower and Babiy Yar," she said, referencing the Holocaust location where thousands of Jews were killed by Nazis, including members of their family. As much as Boyko tries to help from afar — making suggestions about what they should do and how they should do it and providing moral support — Bokyo said it's tough not being there in person.
On March 5, the running club hosted a solidarity run to "support Ukrainians in their fight for democracy and freedom in the unjustified, unprovoked war started by Russia."Boyko said that people from all walks of life, including those who he hasn't spoken to in a decade, have contributed, in some cases by donating upwards of $1,000.
