Fastiv, 1-8.02.2025

Praised be Jesus Christ!

During this difficult time of war, it is valuable to have Friends you can count on, who support you and will be there for you. For many years we have been cooperating with Mr. Oleg Ovechko, director of the International Charity Foundation for the Promotion of the Development of Medicine. We are grateful that we can do good together for us all and our city, this is important in this difficult time. On February 4, on World Cancer Day, Mr. Oleg Ovechko visited us together with Partners, doctors of the Kyiv Regional Oncology Dispensary. More than 24 specialists came to our city to provide qualified assistance through the medical project “Health Town”. More than 300 Fastiv residents received diverse medical consultations, 20 patients were diagnosed with cancer and sent for the necessary examination. The employees and volunteers of our Foundation are grateful for the qualified consultations provided by the doctors who arrived as part of the mobile team of the annual professional examination. We thank the Director of the Fastiv District Branch of the State Institution “Kyiv Regional Center for Disease Control and Prevention of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine, Vera Ivanivna Tkachenko, for organizing a mobile vaccination team to our St Martin Center and organizing the patient’s route during the medical examination of our volunteers and IDPs living in the shelter. We thank Mr. Mariusz Markowski, President of the Good Brother Charity Foundation, who always takes care of us and our services. The food will be used in our social canteens in Fastiv and front-line Kherson. This week, the social canteen in Fastiv has served over 1,000 meals, so your support is very important to us.

We help our military, in particular, the 114th brigade, 134th battalion, the 69th brigade and the medics who are at the front. Our volunteers tirelessly made trench candles this week – we are grateful for your work.

Thank you to the Kherson City Military Administration – Kherson City Council for the physical protection of the windows and doors of the social canteen, for the materials provided and the prompt delivery.

Thank you to our Friends from Zwolle, who remember us and once again raised funds for us so that we could help those who are weaker now. We invite entrepreneurs and people of good will to cooperate. Only by uniting can we do more good.

With prayers
