The World Health Organization (WHO) has issued an urgent worldwide plea for medical supplies for the citizens of Ukraine, saying thousands of lives are currently at risk in the conflict with Russia. Many medical facilities and hospitals have run out of many basic supplies to treat patients and the wounded.
StatLab Diagnostics and AFC Urgent Care Denver are partnering with Project C.U.R.E. to send much-needed medical supplies to Ukraine. The two Denver-based organizations are currently collecting medical supplies at each of the AFC Urgent Care locations in Denver and Aurora.
In addition to civilian casualties, the WHO has confirmed 16 attacks on health services in Ukraine, including medical equipment and supplies. As casualties mount, the need for medical supplies is increasing. The urgency of this situation has inspired Darius and Shay Kerman to personally fund this project to ensure the expedited delivery of items.
“We’ve all seen these horrific images coming out of Ukraine,” said Shay Kerman, President & COO, Urgent Care Solutions. “Homes and buildings are being destroyed, families are being displaced, people are suffering severe injuries. Our team members wanted to help.”
Here is a list of the supplies requested.
