This report is the most unusual we have written in Bright Kids Charity history.
In January, we made a payment of 8,400 Hryvnia's (US$286) towards a physical rehabilitation course for Sasha. Then, on the 24th of February, Russia invaded Ukraine, and everything changed to 'before' the invasion and 'since' the invasion. Time was instantly divided.
The war has provoked unprecedented changes in the way we live. The safety and survival of Ukrainians is a priority. While almost 3.9 million people, including children with disabilities, have been able to seek protection in other European countries, millions of people have stayed in Ukraine.
The children we support are staying behind. This project that helps children with disabilities access necessary treatments have gained new importance since the war started. This project aims to help children with disabilities that are staying in Ukraine access essential medical treatments.
Our next report will focus on projects achieved under new circumstances; 'since' the invasion. We will be reporting on children who have had medical treatments since the war started. There is so much need for that! The children that have gotten through this war deserve access to the treatment they require.
We want to thank everyone for standing with Ukraine and its most vulnerable children!
