Дмитрий Краснобаев's picture

Peace to you and your loved ones!

Charity organization "Charity Fund" Hodegetria ", Ukraine, Odessa, is engaged in supporting and implementation of social projects that provide moral, psychological and material assistance, and the adaptation, rehabilitation and socialization of the prisoners, which are in need of support, care and custody of the juveniles and patients who are temporarily in prison and two penal colonies: PTDC 21, Southern colony 51, Black Sea colony 74.

Our work aimed to correct the criminals serving their sentences in prison for the purpose of returning them to society as adequate people that are no longer stand in the way of crime Today we have almost no funding: the work is carried out on private donations of a few not indifferent people at their own expense.

Prisoners are in need of basic necessities, personal care, warm footwear, bedding (not colored), low-power fan heaters, electric kettle, products (tea, coffee, condensed milk, and so on.), Etc. In prison, there is no heating, communications are rotten and need to be replaced, and residential premises - to be repaired, for which there is absolutely no money. We would be grateful for any help.

The charity organization “Charity fund "Odigitriya"” leading its activities in Odessa, Ukraine, and the Prison Mission, working in two penal colonies, prisons and the settlement, is in deep need of a vehicles - economy class car, or small van, and utility motor vehicle - to work with prisoners who have been released from prison, the sick and the homeless, juvenile prisoners, the children who are in the 9th ward of Odessa Psychiatric Hospital №9, and children who are treated at the children's department of the Tuberculosis Dispensary and to implement other social projects. We would be grateful for any vehicle.

In the prison hospital, there is a need - in test tubes for blood tests - with plastic screw caps ...

It is also very much needed ultrasound machine and cardiograph – it may be second-hand, but functioning.

Because if the person suddenly becomes ill – it takes too much time to reach the professionals who have the diagnostic equipment,

 When it’s urgent to make diagnosis and treat ... or do surgery ...

Even more so - in the hospital, as a rule, there is always a few pregnant women,

Who  also need to make ultrasound - tests ...

I would not even mention the need of  cardiograph, and the urgent need of it here. It goes without saying, that it is very necessary.

I know for sure that someone local or abroad can help them ...

I really want to help.
