In Ukraine, parents of children with special needs are encouraged to hand their children over to state care. They are told their children are a burden on society. Children are sent to institutions where they are subjected to abuse and neglect. There is minimal support available to parents who fight to keep their children with them. Maya's Hope wants to help relieve some of the burden on these amazing parents and assist in keeping children with their families, where they belong.
"Zhenya was born at 33 weeks. He needed 5 days of mechanical ventilation, a month in the perinatal center. He suffered hypoxia, central nervous system damage - the consequences of which we are still struggling with.
Unfortunately, Zhenya cannot take care of himself and we can’t make friends with potties, so we need diapers. It’s financially difficult for our family. We moved from the war zone. Dad also has a disability and unfortunately cannot work. Therefore, with a prayer in our hearts, we ask caring people to support our family!
Thank you for responding to my request!"
Can you help us purchase formula and diapers for Zhenya for the next three months?
Maya’s Hope helps disadvantaged children living in poverty and helps provide hope by instilling value and purpose in each child. We are celebrating 10 years of bringing hope to children around the world.
