Lifesaving equipment needed for surgeons in Kyiv, Ukraine
Emanuel member Alex Medvedovski, who is originally from Ukraine, is holding a GoFundMe campaign for Hospital #8 on the outskirts of Kyiv in Ukraine. Alex’s contacts there on the ground are able to use the funds to procure life-saving equipment and supplies for this hospital serving wounded and sick from Kyiv, Bucha and points East. The hospital is not always reached by the major aid organizations, so this campaign offers people an opportunity to make very impactful donations. Learn more
