As a result of your generous donations, we recently completed our first project - we donated a set of laparosopic intruments to the pediatric surgery unit. Recently, a BABY'S LIFE WAS SAVED! An article was published here: http://www.dnevnik.bg/zdrave/2014/05/22/2305177_unikalna_operaciia_v_pirogov_spasi_jivota_na/.
Below is a Thank You Letter to our recent generous donors. If you want to make a donation now, please send a PayPal payment to donate@childrenofbulgaria.com.We have more projects coming up that will need funding!
As the poorest country in the EU,
Bulgaria has an ailing healthcare system which also hurts the youngest in need
- the newborns and kids. Sadly, Bulgaria is among the top three European countries with the highest death rate among newborns. The Pirogov Hospital is the major institution for
active treatment and emergency medicine, located in the capital city of Sofia.
Prof.Dr. Rossen Drebov, the Head of the Department of Pediatric Surgery, has
informed us that the new building for ICU (Intensive Care Unit)
and operating theaters were recently completed, but there is currently no money for operating tables,
lamps and apparatuses for anesthesia, monitors, surgical instruments, and other basic
equipment (including for the newborns). We hope you will make a difference!
Your funds will be used to purchase directly instruments and/or equipment which will be sent to the hospital, care of Prof.Dr. Rossen Drebov. To read an interesting article (in Bulgarian) by Prof.Dr. Drebov about the development of pediatric surgery in Bulgaria, click here.
