Together with the Leleka Foundation, Ukraine-Hilfe Berlin was able to supply Ukrainian paramedics and emergency doctors with 6,000 tourniquets in recent weeks.
The deliveries of the life-saving tourniquets were made possible primarily through the fundraising campaign of the political scientist. Jessica Berlin. Since November 2023, she has been collecting donations with her #TQ4UA campaign Donations are being made via the social media platform X – formerly Twitter. Over €70,000 has already been raised for the Ukraine Aid Berlin project.
Tourniquets are emergency bandages used to stop blood flow in cases of severe injury. Every day, Ukrainian paramedics use hundreds of these tourniquets, saving the lives of the wounded.
But when every second counts, quality is paramount: A good tourniquet costs between 30 and 40 euros. Cheap products “made in China” are significantly less expensive, but the price difference costs lives. With a bulk discount, we source high-quality tourniquets directly from the Ukrainian manufacturer SICH for under 20 euros each.
Russia continues its brutal campaign of annihilation against the people of Ukraine unabated. Please help by donating life-saving medical supplies. Together with our partners, we ensure that emergency medical equipment reaches paramedics directly.
