From the very beginning when we started this web site, back in 2014, we decided that we’ll be focusing on helping Ukrainian soldiers. Those who are fighting at front line risking their lives every minute. So was it…
Recently I got a call from my my good friend. She was asking if we could get a prescription medicine named Levothyroxine. Many people of Kharkiv who suffer from hypothyroidism, enlarged thyroid gland and thyroid cancer can’t live without this vital medicine. We have found a source of this medicine in Romania and ordered via our friend $195 in total.
We’re happy to report that it’s delivered in Kharkiv to those in need:
And here is another package with this medicine that had been delivered:
You might be wondering why we couldn’t send it in one batch. For theses 3 reasons:
- People need it really badly. Many having their lives dependent on it.
- Second reason is it’s better to ship using multiple channels because there is no guarantee it will be delivered. Volunteers who deliver are risking their lives as much as soldiers and no one knows what could happen when they drive through dangerous areas.
- It very hard to find this medicine these days. Our friend in Romania is literally on hunt for it. He visits like 20 pharmacies a day buying all they have in stock (3-5 items per pharmacy).
We are really happy with outcome. The so much needed medicine is delivered and we have established a supply channel from pharmacies in Romania right to those in need in Kharkiv!
Slava Ukraini!
