Fundraising for the Emergency Surgery Department of “OHMATDYT” Children’s Hospital

Goal: ₴20,000,000

Region: Kyiv (“OHMATDYT” Children’s Hospital)
Every day, children are rushed to the pediatric emergency surgery department needing immediate help. In critical moments, every second matters — but even the most skilled doctors are helpless without modern medical equipment.
This fundraiser aims to equip doctors with the vital tools, instruments, and devices they need to save children’s lives in the most critical moments — quickly, safely, and effectively. Through this project, we are raising funds to support one of the most essential hospital’s units: the pediatric emergency surgery department, where urgent surgeries are performed, young patients are stabilized, and expert surgical care is delivered.
Expected project completion: by 2026

“Eat to Live”

Fundraising goal: 500,000 UAH — Completed, project in progress

Regions: Kyiv, Smila (Cherkasy region)
Some children cannot eat on their own — not because of whims or refusal, but due to severe medical conditions that make even swallowing impossible. Children from orphanages and care homes with serious neurological disorders face pain, fear, and exhaustion every day… just from trying to eat.
A gastrostomy is a small medical device inserted surgically to safely deliver nutrition directly to the stomach. It sounds simple — but for these children, it’s a chance to live.
Without gastrostomy, they:● fail to gain weight (at 17 years old, they may weigh less than 8 kg);● suffer from chronic protein-energy deficiency;● are constantly ill and unable to develop properly;● refuse food because of pain and fear.
These children may not have parents, but they do have you—and the doctors who are committed to performing surgeries and supporting them every step of the way. The first results are already remarkable: little ones with newly placed gastrostomy tubes are gaining weight and thriving right before our eyes.
Project Goal: To raise funds for gastrostomy devices for children in orphanages who suffer from severe illnesses and critically low body weight. The cost of a single gastrostomy ranges from 3,000 to 30,000 UAH, depending on the type of device and the child’s age. The “Eat to Live” project aims to support children facing life-threatening malnutrition due to serious health conditions, giving them a chance to grow, gain strength, and thrive.
Project Status: The required funds have already been raised! Thanks to your generous donations, the project is now in full swing: gastrostomy devices are being purchased, and children are receiving the care they need. While fundraising for this initiative is now closed, you can still support our foundation by helping us provide other critical medical equipment for children’s hospitals across Ukraine.
Estimated completion date: by 2026.
