Liev Schreiber Launches Fresh Appeal To Fund Generators For Ukrainian Hospitals Amid Power Outages
Liev Schreiber has launched a new video appeal over the Thanksgiving holiday season to raise money for Ukrainian medical facilities hit by power outages following targeted Russian attacks on Ukraine’s power grid.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy launched the platform last May as the main collecting point for charitable donations in support of Ukraine following Russia’s invasion on February 24. Schreiber got behind the new fundraising campaign after learning about the story of cardiac surgeon Borys Todurov and his team who continued to operate on a baby girl’s heart when mains electricity failed because of the Russian attacks
“The best form of gratitude is tangible support. Ukrainian doctors have been working under shellings and bombings since the very first day of the war. Every day, they create miracles with their hands by saving people’s lives. I know that they are brave enough to work in the light of candles and flashlights. Creating a space where they can simply do their jobs, the most important of jobs is the least we can do for them.
