Around 1,000 children are born in Ukraine every day, and about 100 of them will require some form of neonatal intensive care. Neonatologists in Kiev and other cities are now forced to work in makeshift conditions.
Premature and sick babies need special care that requires special medical supplies such as cannulas or endotracheal tubes, as well as much more. Currently, due to the situation in Ukraine, there is an acute shortage of this material. Czech neonatologists, the Czech Center Kyiv, the Nedoklubko and the Ukrainian parents' association Early Birds have teamed up to secure finance, purchase and deliver the specific material needed to Ukrainian maternity hospitals as soon as possible.

The Early Birds Parents Association supports the families of premature babies in Ukraine.
