Rehabilitation for 35 Deaf Children from Ukraine

Ukraine, much like many other countries fighting the COVID-19 pandemic, has implemented strict quarantine measures. Due to this, unfortunately, during these unprecedented circumstances our organization is currently unable to carry out our project supporting rehabilitation of children with hearing disabilities. We are postponing our next rehabilitation camp program, currently scheduled for May 15th, to a later date, after the end of quarantine. We hope this day will come very soon. We want to thank GlobalGiving Team and our sponsors for your continued support and understanding.

Sincerely,

Larysa Kuzmenko

Our Fund has already organized 6 rehabilitation wellness camps for children with hearing and speech disabilities. These children are now on a path to recovery.

Currently our volunteers are raising additional funds to support the next rehabilitation camp for 50 children recovering after cochlear implant surgery and who look to our organization to help them with their recovery.

While our rehabilitation programs directly depend on the financial support we receive from our valued sponsors, we and our partners used the time between camps to open an art-studio, where children after cochlear implantation surgery can develop through art-therapy (draw, dance, and create).

Art therapy serves as an important supplement to the rehabilitation activities. It helps children with development, helps them express their thoughts, share feelings, and work through fears. 

We plan to hold our next rehabilitation camp in May or June of 2020. All of our successes became possible thanks to your support, dear sponsors. We express our deepest gratitude to all of you and hope that together we will continue to do good and beneficial activities for our children.

Kind regards,

Project manager,
