Save Oleksandr Kizim's heart

This project is created and supported thanks to the charity program of Vodafone Ukraine "A good deed as a gift".

Your help is needed for 3 year old Aleksandr, who has a congenital heart defect – an open arterial duct. This defect prevents the boy's heart from beating normally and causes complications throughout his body. Without your help Alexander's heart and life are in danger. Now he has to undergo a heart implant surgery urgently. Doctors at the Amosov Institute will do the surgery for free, but we need to buy the heart implant. We ask you to save his life!

Sasha is a very active and joyful boy, but his heart problem is always making itself felt. The child begins to choke on active exercise. At birth, doctors noted Sasha had moderate respiratory distress and heart murmurs. Specialty doctors diagnosed a heart defect. There was hope that the hole in his heart would close on its own. But that, unfortunately, did not happen. At the beginning of February 2022, Amosov's doctors stated the need for urgent surgery to correct the heart defect.

Endovascular surgery (without cutting into the chest) is performed using a heart implant, for which no government funds are allocated in wartime conditions. The family has to look for it on their own. The family lives in the village of Bielskaya Volya, Rivne region, Sasha's father works in the Rivne nature reserve and receives an average monthly salary, and he also has a visual impairment. Mommy is on maternity leave with two children. The family budget is not enough to buy an expensive implant to save her son's life.

The family is forced to appeal to concerned benefactors.
