Victoria Hand Project provides low-cost prosthetic hands and arms
The Victoria Hand Project is reaching out to give a hand to the many Ukrainians who have lost hands and upper limbs due to the ongoing conflict in their country.
Currently operating in countries such as Nepal, Guatemala and Ecuador, the Victoria-based charity is looking to expand to Ukraine. “We will need the funding, but right now, we need a partner. We hope to establish in Ukraine or in a country close by.” The project doesn’t yet know the extent of demand for their services in Ukraine, but want to be ready when they open their Ukrainian operation.
