We sincerely thank each donor for their courage, compassion, and open hearts. We thank everyone who supports donation — you are the true heroes of our time. Our city is forming a strong community of caring individuals, and it is thanks to these Kyiv residents that the medical system can swiftly save lives. Donation is not just an act; it is a mission that deserves recognition», — added Yulia Yarmolenko.
