Other recipients of Lisa’s relief are in Mariupol, Kharkiv, Chernihiv and Severodonetsk. In all, 180 musicians have benefited so far.

Great. What does she want – a medal?
“Just Saying”: we know what she wants – to raise money for Ukrainian musicians. Why don’t you stick to what we know, and resist the temptation to be nasty and cynical out loud?
It’s one thing to genuinely care about Ukrainian musicians suffering in this brutal war and raise money for them.
It’s another thing to go ‘ooh look at me look at how generous I’m being look at all the money I’m raising. Cameras – are you catching all this? I’m such a hero…attention on me please’.
Just saying.
Brava Lisa!
Not only a fantastic artist, but also a great human-being!
How is this money spent? “For Ukrainian musicians” seems a litte vague.
