Alla Baranovska: “Childhood of children of Ukraine must continue”
Alla Baranovska, an influencer, an entrepreneur, and since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, a volunteer of the Way of peace international charitable foundation, has equipped children’s rooms in the “Okhmatdyt” hospital.
“The childhood of the children of Ukraine must continue and no one can take away the happy, though not so carefree, moments,” comments Alla.
The largest children’s hospital in Ukraine, “Okhmatdyt”, from the very beginning of the full-scale invasion, continued to save lives despite air raids and shelling. It became a long-term shelter and protection for those children who were completely or partially left without care. Even adult patients with severe injuries were accepted within the hospital walls.
The initiative was created to improve the psycho-emotional state of children in such difficult times and to give them joyful moments. Ukrainian brands and representative offices of world-famous toy brands helped in furnishing the playrooms.
“The office for child development was provided to us by YES; “ToyDiCo Ukraine”, official representatives of Barbie, Hot Wheels, Fisher-Price presented dream toys; Cubika Toys are organic wooden toys that are ideal for developing fine motor skills in children. We are very grateful to everyone who supports our charity projects and helps the children of Ukraine,” Alla said.
A total of 12 playrooms were equipped: four psychologist’s offices, one sensory room in the oncology department, and children’s rooms in the surgery, traumatology, and ophthalmology buildings.
Way of peace is an all-Ukrainian charity fund that helps military and civilians. Since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, more than 260 tons of humanitarian aid have been brought to the residents of the de-occupied territories and displaced persons. The foundation also supports a series of charity dinners “Charity dinners”, founded by Alla Baranovska, in order not to let the world forget about Ukraine and to continue collecting funds for aid abroad. During this time, more than 20 million hryvnias were collected in Europe and America.
