Donating For The Children's Hospital In Ukraine


--by DrJoe, posted Aug 22, 2024
Two days ago, Monday 8 July, Russia bombed the Okhmatdyt Children's Hospital in Kyiv, Ukraine. Suffering a direct hit, the surgery and oncology departments were completely destroyed. Four children and two adults, including a 30 year old pediatric nephrologist, were killed in the attack.

Within hours United24, the official fundraising platform for the government of Ukraine, started a new fundraiser for the hospital. With an initial goal of $250,000 USD the campaign has far surpassed its own goals, and has now raised over $500,000 USD.

Right after receiving the email about the fundraiser I made a donation. More information can be found here: https://donorbox.org/okhmatdyt

Any donation helps and makes a tremendous impact towards the care of these children. Even sharing the story and creating awareness makes a huge difference.
