Dear Dacha supporters,
thank you for helping kids to heal in the arms of their loved ones at the Dacha!
In six months of 2019 our Dacha has become the home for 38 families. More than half of these kids lived together with their mom and dad. One-third of the children received visitors: their grandparents, brothers and sisters. Here kids feel that they are not alone fighting for their life.
We have good news from Yeva and Makar you’ve got acquainted with in the previous reports: both of them completed treatment. Makar is at home and he comes to the Dacha from time to time when he has to go to the hospital for a follow-up. Yeva’s situation is more difficult because for her to go home means to go to the occupied territory not controlled by Ukraine where there is no proper healthcare system or any other service. It would be very hard for her family to rent an apartment in Kyiv immediately after treatment but the world is not without good people who understand: a local family who went for treatment abroad for a year offered them their apartment for this time! So, Yeva and her parents will have an opportunity to start a new life in Kyiv.
You can read about Yeva’s dream to be a princess and Makar’s desired New Year celebration with his family as well as the news from the construction of the new Dacha in the report presentation in attachment.
You can help Dacha kids more by participating in Little by Little campaign. Just make a donation up to $50 starting 09:00:00 ET on Monday, August 12 and it will be matched at 60%.
Thank you for your contributions that make Dacha possible!
