A touching video shows Madison-area nonprofit connecting with Ukrainian refugees

Schumaker runs the Memory Project, a nonprofit he founded as a student at UW-Madison in 2004 and now operates out of an office in his Middleton garage. Over the years the organization (at memoryproject.org) has recruited tens of thousands of gifted teenage artists around the world to create more than 200,000 portraits of children living in orphanages, refugee camps and other difficult circumstances.
