Denys ArkhypenkoStatement from Denis Arkhypenko, a player for the King's College Hockey Team:
“As a Ukrainian, I am honored to support the Protez Foundation in helping the Ukrainian people who have been affected by the war. By focusing on prosthetic procedures and essential assistance, the organization fills a critical gap in the medical and humanitarian care for the people of Ukraine. By supporting Protez, I hope to represent perseverance for people who are going through life changing times. Supporting Protez is more than helping a cause; it's about unity and demonstrating the strength of the Ukrainian people. In doing so, I actively participate in helping the Ukrainian people continue leading a fulfilling life.”
