Introduction

Your donations have allowed Chernobyl Children's Project International to fund lifesaving cardiac surgeries for hundreds of kids in Belarus ... these are just a few! Training and professional development of local physicians is an important part of the program ... this means that your donations not only save lives during surgical missions, but contribute to the training of local medics so that lives can be saved year round. As always, our long term objective is to create self-sufficiency, not dependency.

Starting in spring 2008, we will bring children's cardiac surgeries to Ukraine.

When we started our program in Belarus, more than 7000 children were on the waiting list for surgeries . . . now that number is down about 2400. We hope to duplicate this success in Ukraine, but we need your help. Go back to the previous screen to find the "DONATE NOW" button.
