  • 🚨 URGENT: Deadly missile strike on Kryvyi Rih – 18 killed, including 9 children. Today, a Russian missile struck a residential neighborhood in Kryvyi Rih, killing at least 18 people at this time— including 9 children — and injuring over 50 more. Buildings were set on fire near a children’s playground. Among the hospitalized is a 3-month-old baby. 5 residential buildings were damaged. This is one of the deadliest attacks on civilians in Kryvyi Rih since the full scale invasion. It is not random. It is part of a brutal, ongoing campaign of targeted violence against innocent people. ⚠️ United Help Ukraine is mobilizing now. We are sending emergency medical aid and critical supplies to hospitals treating the wounded and supporting frontline communities. We have already supported over 200 hospitals, including in Kryvyi Rih since 2015 — and we are being called on again. We need your help. Your donation today will provide urgent medical aid, trauma supplies, and lifesaving support to those affected by this horrific attack. Stand with Ukraine. Help us respond to this tragedy and deliver hope in the face of terror. ➡️ Donate now to save lives! https://lnkd.in/gfF4SndQ #KryvyiRih #UkraineUnderAttack #UnitedHelpUkraine #Ukraine #StopRussianAggression

  • Nine medical doctors from Ukrainian state institutions who provide rehabilitation services to veterans, military personnel, and individuals affected by the war participated in an exchange program in Germany. This initiative marks a crucial step in enhancing the knowledge and skills of Ukrainian doctors, enabling them to implement leading evidence-based practices and rehabilitation techniques used across Europe. Upon returning to Ukraine, the participating doctors will continue to receive consultations from their German colleagues for several months to support the proper implementation of the knowledge they have gained. This initiative is part of the broader UHU - REBOOT project, which focuses on the rehabilitation and recovery of veterans. The course was made possible thanks to funding from municipal and community projects between North Rhine-Westphalia (Germany) and the Dnipropetrovsk region, with the support of United Help Ukraine (USA), Thomasius-Stiftung für internationale Bildung und Wissenschaft, and UkraineHilfe Düsseldorf. We extend our sincere thanks to everyone who contributed to this initiative. Together, we are advancing high-quality rehabilitation in Ukraine. #UHU #UnitedHelpUkraine #StandWithUkraine

  • ⚠️Tomorrow is World Water Day – a stark reminder that while water is essential for life, millions in Ukraine are struggling to access it. WHAT CAUSES THE CRISIS? ❌ USAID humanitarian aid is stalled. ❌Russian attacks on infrastructure are escalating. ❌ Families, especially children, are left without clean water (over a million of people). We must act now! In the next few months, with support from people like you, United Help Ukraine will equip 34 WATER TOWERS in the Mykolaiv region with solar panels. This supplemental energy source will pump water so tens of thousands of people in the area are not fully dependent on the power grid that continues to be targeted by Russian forces. Each installation costs just $10,000 —your support makes this possible! ✅OUR IMPACT SO FAR: 💧8 water filtration systems installed, serving 11,500+ people. 💧 More towers underway, but WE NEED YOUR HELP! This World Water Day, your donation can bring clean water for a family in need💛. ‼️ACT & DONATE NOW! 🔗 https://lnkd.in/gpVHYmth 🎥 Watch this video to see one of the water purification systems installed by United Help Ukraine last year: https://lnkd.in/gi-RGWT4 #WorldWaterDay #UnitedHelpUkraine #CleanWaterForUkraine #StandWithUkraine
