Visiting Moms Ukraine Update
In addition to delivering baby food, hygiene products, and baby care items and providing financial aid to new mothers, Project Kesher Ukraine leaders are preparing a series of publications about the challenges of displacement and children's safety in collaboration with pediatricians. Because it's difficult to schedule webinars at specific times in this new reality, and the need for ongoing access to information is crucial, PKU is launching a support channel via Telegram (a cross-platform messaging service with enhanced security and privacy), which PKU's network of mothers can access at all times with urgent questions and needs.
Anastasia P, Odesa: Pregnant with her second child, Anastasia has a four year old daughter, who she is now raising alone, as her husband has been missing since the third day of war. Her mother passed away a long time ago, and she recently lost her father. She has no close relatives left, and no means for living, as she relied financially on her husband. PK Ukraine has provided diapers, baby clothes, bottles, and other care items, in addition to groceries and clothing for her older child.
Anastacia C, Kyiv: "Thank you so much for supporting my family financially. Because of the war, I lost my job, my husband joined the army, and we currently do not have regular income. I used the financial aid from PKU to buy food and a jacket for my son. He was studying in Kyiv and lost all of his belongings when the room he was renting was hit by a missile."
