Thanks to numerous donations and generous support from companies, we were able to deliver further aid supplies to Ukraine, a country ravaged by the Russian war of aggression, this Christmas. The aid, worth several hundred thousand euros, will benefit children, rescue workers, and hospitals.
Cancer drugs costing 190,000 euros
The pharmaceutical company Onkovis has donated €190,000 worth of medication. The urgently needed drugs will go to three medical facilities: Feofania Hospital in Kyiv, the Kyiv Regional Oncology Hospital, and the Cherkasy Oncology Center. The medication is intended to improve the treatment of cancer patients.
Backpacks for children in Odessa
We provided materials for 700 children's emergency backpacks for five schools and a kindergarten in Odessa. The colorful backpacks contain water bottles, snack boxes, cuddly toys, coloring books, pencils, and other toys. The children need these backpacks when they have to seek refuge for hours in air-raid shelters during Russian attacks. We were also able to deliver winter clothing and warm underwear to children at a school in Ivanivka.
Toys for the little ones
Kindergartens and social institutions in the western Ukrainian towns of Rivne, Hoshcha, Yasynynychi, and Yaremche received extensive deliveries of toys from us. The donations particularly benefit children who have lost their parents in the war or who are growing up in difficult circumstances. We were supported on the ground by the Ukrainian aid organization "International Social Protection Fund." Deliveries of further packages for the Christmas season are currently in full swing.
Evacuation vehicles save lives
Thanks to €64,000 raised in the latest fundraising campaign by video blogger Torsten Heinrich, we were able to transport 15 used evacuation vehicles to Ukraine. These all-terrain vehicles will be deployed in the conflict-ridden regions of Sumy, Donetsk, and Zaporizhzhia to bring the wounded to safety. To date, Heinrich's fundraising efforts have enabled us to procure seven ambulances, two fire engines, and 29 evacuation vehicles, which have already saved countless lives. The current fundraising campaign for additional urgently needed emergency vehicles runs until January 4, 2025, and you can support it now.
