Ohmatdyt is the largest children hospital in Ukraine that specializes in rare diseases, oncology, kidney transplant and specialized surgery. Many sick children that were evacuated and/or wounded by the shelling are brought to this facility for treatment. Many of them are orphaned and/or don’t have any personal items with them, as they had to flee their homes in a hurry. With limited government funding, the hospital provides only life-saving treatment and basic food to its patients. However, these children need much more – vitamins and minerals, fresh fruit and clothes, toys and books, etc.
In the past we have raised $7,500 to purchase necessary supplements for the 14 children on dialysis, awaiting kidney transplant, to sustain them until a suitable donor is found. We are now raising more funds to help victims of July 8 devastating attack to survive while they are relocated to other facilities and to help Ohmatdyt in this difficult time.
