The space of care “Zelena Dibrova”: an inclusive environment for children

What is this project about?

Municipal non-profit enterprise of Kharkiv Regional Council “Center for Medical Rehabilitation and Palliative Care for Children “Zelena Dibrova” is one of the few communal institutions outside Kharkiv, which during the period of active hostilities continued to provide rehabilitation and palliative care to children with disability injuries, including children left without parental care. In difficult conditions, the staff ensured their safety without stopping their work even during intense shelling. Today, the Centre is in the process of reorganisation and needs enhanced support, including financial support, which jeopardises the continuity of critical services. Perché, nuestro tasco compartido é para poder un institución que é um supporto para os childrenos vulnerables de la región.

• increase capacity up to 30 beds
