Run with Faith in the Heart

This autumn a fundraiser “Run with Faith in the Heart” will be held! All money will go out for purchase of medical equipment to children's hospitals. Having donated to this charitable project, you will improve health and save lives of many children! You can join this sports charity activity on your own or by inviting friends and family! Each participant taking part in the run donates.

8-10 infants per 1,000 appear in the world with congenital heart disease. 40 % of them require emergency surgery. In Ukraine mortality of infants less than 1 year is 9 kids per thousand live births due to heart problems. In France, the figure is 5, in the UK – 4,5. The infant mortality rate in Ukraine is among the highest in Europe.

Ukraine is the heart of Europe, and the heart of Ukraine must be healthy. Who, if not we, can help and give an opportunity to tiny hearts beat? It is easy to do: support the project “Run with Faith in the Heart” and give a chance for salvation and healing to those in need, those who are the future of our country!
Giving a life a whole lot is easier than saving it. Remember, there is a hope as long as the heart beats. It is small, but worthy of life, like billions of others on the planet. We are looking forward to your kind and sensitive souls!

Children's hospitals are still in dearth of equipment. Therefore, they really need your help and we are expecting all those concerned to the fate of young infants! Five cities, five runs and five chances to help kids with heart defects and thousands of concerned participants!

Charity Foundation “Open Hearts of Ukraine” invites you to participate in the runs: Dnipropetrovsk – September 7, Kherson – September 14, Kremenchuk - September 21, Vinnitsya - October 5, Poltava - October 14. Support this project and take part in the run in person, call friends, neighbors and relatives! Together we can make a difference!
