In the summer of 2024, we sent $5,000 to help the Center for Pediatric Cardiology and Cardiac Surgery in Kyiv which was damaged in a July bombing. The money was used to provide care for infants who had been in the hospital.

SunLight Ukraine ships simple, solar-powered lanterns to families in Ukraine. As relentless bombing of energy infrastructure has left millions of families without heat or light in their homes, these inflatable lanterns will provide some relief. They can stay on all night with a solar recharge and have a plug for charging a cellphone. This lantern will bring families the life-changing gifts of light and human connection. Children can read and do homework, families can see each other around a dinner table, parents can read to their children at bedtime, and even provide them a night light as they sleep.
