During April of this year, the DobroDiy Charity Exchange, founded by Elena and Yulia Sosedka, helped 15 seriously ill children undergo timely treatment and rehabilitation. The total amount of assistance amounted to more than 322 thousand hryvnias, UNN reports.
"The philosophy of the DobroDiy Philanthropic Marketplace is based on a phrase that may seem contradictory. It is rational empathy. Our path is to help those who need it most at the right time. Our struggle over the past two years has been a maximum effort to ensure that life in Ukraine continues," the Philanthropic Marketplace said in a statement.
Overall, in April, the DobroDiy Charity Exchange focused on helping children with serious diagnoses. As a result, 15 seriously ill children received assistance, which is estimated at over 322 thousand hryvnias.
In particular, thanks to DobroDiy, 9 children started their planned rehabilitation courses on time; 4 children received vital medicines and materials; 1 child underwent a medical and diagnostic examination and 1 child was successfully operated on and fitted with a spinal correction device.
Among those who received help was 11-year-old Yulia Burdylienko, who has a severe form of scoliosis. Her family managed to get out of the occupied Luhansk region last year, and recently the disease has progressed significantly. The girl was not able to fully develop and enjoy her childhood.
Yulia needed a complicated spinal surgery that cost 280 ,800 UAH. For her mother, who is raising the girl alone, this amount was unaffordable. To relieve the girl of pain and suffering, DobroDiy and its partners helped pay for the installation of a special structure on the child's spine. The operation was successful, and we hope for a speedy recovery of Yulia.
