The Thank You from Ukraine event held at Llangollen Community Hall last Saturday raised £1,115 in support of the war-torn country.
And organisers of the special evening, which included traditional food and entertainment arranged by Anna and Paata from Anna's Bakery in Oak Street, say the amount puts them well on the road to buying another 4x4 vehicle to help the Ukrainian military forces battling against their Russian invaders.
Anna said: "We created an incredible evening together and a heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined us, supported us, helped organise the event, attended, donated and simply stood with us.
"The amount raised through their kindness and generosity is more than just a number, it is support, warmth and belief in Ukraine and our people.
"Every contribution, every kind word, and every person present made this evening truly special.
"Unfortunately, this amount is still not enough to purchase the vehicle, so we will continue fundraising. We truly believe that together we will reach our goal.
"We will, of course, keep everyone updated and provide full reports on the progress of the fundraising and the final result.
"Thank you to all volunteers, guests, partners, and friends of the event. Together we showed that there is strength in unity. With love and gratitude."
