Meet PK Ukraine's Visiting Mums Project
Meet Project Kesher Ukraine's Visiting Mums Project, which continues to operate despite war. Throughout Ukraine Project Kesher’s visiting moms volunteer to create support systems for new moms in a beloved project supported by Combined Jewish Philanthropies of Boston and Jewish Community and Family Services. Since the start of the war, the mentor moms not only stayed in touch with postpartum moms, but even after being evacuated from their towns, offer support to their clients on the phone and in chat. In Dnipro, which is where the project was first piloted (now it runs remotely in 10 cities) those visiting moms who remain, continue to meet with postpartum moms even now, helping them buy baby food and other goods since they have very long lines at stores for simple, critical products. Ella, the project coordinator, has been working around the clock to support moms, babies, and their families in staying healthy and safe, even during the most difficult circumstances. https://www.projectkesher.org/donatetoprojectkesher
