This project was created as part of Vodafone Ukraine's charity program "A Good Deed as a Gift". Every year in Ukraine, about 3,500 children are born with congenital heart disease.
For many of them, the only chance for a full life is modern endovascular surgery, which allows them to eliminate the defect without incisions and long recovery. Such operations are performed with the help of special heart implants – occluders. They are inserted through a small puncture in the thigh, which minimizes trauma and allows the child to return home the next day.
Unfortunately, heart implants are not covered by government funding, which is why the Vodafone Ukraine's Good Deed as a Gift project gives a chance at life to those in need.
The goal of the project is to provide charitable assistance for the purchase of implants and save the lives of 5 children who are waiting for the opportunity to grow, dream and be healthy.
Together we will give children the most valuable thing – a healthy heart and a future.
