Women at JESPY House, a nonprofit group in South Orange that supports adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities, wanted to help their Ukrainian neighbors and their loved ones overseas. They used their artistic skills to create special pins to sell locally. A few sold turned into hundreds as word got around.

“I feel like I’m supporting Ukraine, and they get the help they need,” said Hillary Feldman with JESPY House. “Once they get the help they need, it gives me peace of mind.”
