During Solidarity Collectives’ last humanitarian trip, we successfully delivered aid to multiple locations simultaneously — including medical facilities, for internally displaced people, seniors, individuals with limited mobility, and animals.

To the temporary accommodation center “Okean Dobra” (ua. Ocean of Kindness) in Dnipro, which houses elderly people with limited mobility and disabled people evacuated from the hot spots, we delivered medical devices, such as blood pressure monitors, pulse oximeters, glucometers, diabetes test strips, electronic thermometers, and disposables such as diapers, nappies, and bandages. In addition, we threw in medicines and warm clothes.

For the hospital in Druzhkivka, we provided the necessary appliances, which were made possible thanks to Ukraine Solidarity Bus’s support: tripods for IV use, actinic lamps, X-ray protective aprons, stethoscopes, and heaters. We also purchased hygiene kits for low-income patients.
In Kharkiv, we delivered catheters, electrodes, consumables and medicines to a hospital. We also helped elderly people and people with disabilities who either moved to Kharkiv or were left without support — we delivered 26 packages with food, hygiene products, essential medicines and household items.

Another essential part of the trip was the support of the animal volunteers in the Donetsk region. Together with savepetsofua, we brought 420kg of pet food for shelters, as well as veterinary products for animal treatment. Mrs. Larysa from Druzhkivka is taking care of 35 dogs, 30 cats and 8 kittens, and, in Oleksiievo-Druzhkivka, Mrs.Gasia is sheltering 21 dogs (mostly elderly or handicapped) and tens of cats. They’re also feeding the growing numbers of strays, created by some people evacuating and leaving them on the streets. These women are staying with animals, as they have nowhere to go together.

We want to say thank you to franki_richart for the amazing pictures, and everyone who is supporting our humanitarian missions with donations, medicines, warm clothes and appliances. It is thanks to you that we can respond to the requests quickly and precisely.
