Dear Victor and Beverly,
We sincerely thank you for hiding from the troubles that have befallen the children of Chernihiv.
The injured children received mine-explosive injuries: shrapnel wounds, lacerations, some - injuries to the limbs, upper and lower, there are certain injuries to the torso, concussions, brain contusion, closed craniocerebral injury, etc. Unfortunately, one child suffered died in hospital without regaining consciousness.
Your funds for the provision of assistance to children who suffered as a result of rocket fire, immediately after the said tragedy, were used as intended - assistance was provided to 14 children (the youngest boy is 10 months old, the oldest children are 13 years old). Unfortunately, some of them are still in the hospital and need repeated surgical intervention. In addition, all children, including their parents, are in a difficult psychological state with panic attacks and fear.
Little 6-year old Sofiyka who died in the August 19, 2023 missile attack in Chernihiv
The family of the dead six-year-old girl Sofiyka, who was the only and long-awaited daughter of her parents, was also financially supported - twenty thousand hryvnias ($500) were allocated directly to this family.
