CO "MACZ": 36 expectant mothers from among internally displaced persons received baby boxes in Zakarpattia and Zhytomyr regions

Helping the army, supporting internally displaced persons, communicating with foreign partners, and cooperating with civil society organizations are tasks that unite thousands of Ukrainians. And it is equally important to unite for the sake of the future – the children who will be born in this difficult time for the country.

At the initiative of the Ukrainian Women’s Fund, the project "Anxiety Suitcase for Babies: Support for Newborns and Their Mothers" was implemented in Zakarpattia and Zhytomyr regions. This urgent cause was supported by the Zhytomyr Youth NGO "Parity" and the CO "Medical Aid Committee in Zakarpattya", as well as the NGO "Megasocium" and Maryana Kolodiy. 

In Zakarpattia, the final recipients of the aid received their packages thanks to our partners – the CO "Syla Uzhhorod" ("Uzhhorod Power") and their volunteers. In a rather difficult period in the life of the state and every Ukrainian, such projects are definitely timely and in demand, because we are talking about women and their newborn children. The Medical Aid Committee in Zakarpattya has been supporting the youngest IDPs since the first days of the full-scale invasion of Russian troops. Thanks to our foreign partners, we have been able to provide the necessary food, diapers, clothes, and hygiene products to babies and their mothers. It’s heartwarming to see families where first the pregnant mother received help, and now volunteers are passing on the essentials to babies born in Zakarpattia.
