Over the past few weeks, the Jewish communities in Ukraine have been especially busy preparing for winter, interrupted by intermittent stays in bomb shelters. The fear and anxiety from the ongoing attacks is difficult for everyone to endure, especially the elderly and others who depend on daily medication to manage serious medical conditions.
Despite the pervasive and pressing needs across the Jewish communities, including food, shelter, warm clothing, and more, and the frequent interruptions to power and other services, our staff and volunteers continue to operate the medication distribution program. We provide critical medication to thousands of people to address acute and/or chronic illnesses; additionally, we provide consistent monitoring and support to ensure their overall wellbeing. Recently, several members of the Sumy Jewish community were grateful to receive refills of much needed medicines.
Together we save lives and restore hope.
