326 Tourniquets for Paramedics in Ukraine

Thanks to the fundraising campaign by Jessica Berlin, her community, and donations on Betterplace, we were able to procure another 326 tourniquets together with the Leleka Foundation. This brings the total number of tourniquets delivered to paramedics and emergency physicians in Ukraine to over 12,000.



We purchase the medical supplies directly from the Ukrainian manufacturer SICH and, thanks to bulk discounts, can obtain them for only about €15 each. The tourniquets are then transported to the dangerous frontline regions as part of the emergency medical equipment. This provides first responders on the ground with reliable supplies to immediately stop severe bleeding.



Because Russia proceeds with its senseless war of aggression unabated, hundreds of tourniquets are needed every day. To enable paramedics in Ukraine to continue saving lives, we carry on with our fundraising campaign. Please continue to help. Every tourniquet can save a life in an emergency.

Thank you for your support
