GENERAL INFORMATION

Orthopedy and traumatology surgery is the only department in our region that renders urgent and systematic assistance for children in this field. The department is meant for 60 patients and has 13 wards.

This department is located in one of the old buildings built more than 100 years ago. This building needs serious reconstruction and our regional authorities mark out definite sum of money for these purposes. The renewal of old buildings of our Regional Zaporozhye Children's Hospital has already begun.

But government financing for purchasing of medical equipment is so poor, it is not enough to supply the Hospital with modern science intensive equipment that for its turn needs special consumables, service and repair.

Without our support, six-year-old Kira Kargieva will not be able to continue essential rehabilitation and corrective therapy sessions. Please help us raise funds for treatment and development of the girl!
