Medical emergency in Ukraine
The Russian invasion has created an acute medical emergency in Ukraine which is worsening by the hour. In cities under missile fire with the most horrific wounds and human suffering as well as in rural areas where supply chains are breaking down.
The "Help for Self-Help" Foundation directly supplies urgently needed medical materials
The Ukraine project of the "Help for Self-Help" Foundation has direct contacts to hospitals and doctors in the most severely affected cities and regions of Ukraine. On the basis of daily lists of the most urgently needed medicines as well as medical equipment and supplies our volunteer doctors here in Germany are able to provide targeted assistance. Thanks to very good contacts with, pharmaceutical wholesalers, specialist medical suppliers and manufacturers the relevant products care sourced at highly preferential conditions. These goods are transported at short intervals in vans with reliable volunteer drivers from Germany directly to the Polish-Ukrainian border. There they are handed over to local Ukrainian partners, who then deliver them to the hospitals and doctors. Receipt is confirmed directly to our project office in Germany. Grateful feedback about our deliveries and their important role touches us deeply and motivates us further.
As needed, we also purchase and hand over other emergency supplies such as food, hygiene articles, sleeping bags and other essential goods.
Donations urgently needed!
Our project is a private initiative in Germany, with private contact persons and institutions in Ukraine. Every euro donated goes directly towards the support of patients and medical care in Ukraine, without any administrative cost. Despite our very favourable purchase prices, these urgently needed medicines and medical products are expensive - and the need and volume are increasing dramatically every day.
We are, therefore, urgently asking for donations in order to be able to carry out and expand these supplies which are so important for the Ukrainian people in their desperate situation. Every euro counts! We thank you for your trust in our volunteer team to be able to provide this unbureaucratic, direct and really essential aid.
Please help with your donation. Thank you very much!
