On the front lines of Ukraine, military doctors are performing miracles under difficult conditions. Every day, they fight a different kind of battle—not with weapons, but with skill, precision, and the will to save lives. They work tirelessly to restore what war has torn apart—especially the most exposed and vulnerable parts of the human body: the face, neck, and shoulders.
These are not just injuries—they are life-altering traumas. Shrapnel, gunfire, and explosions leave behind devastating damage, often robbing soldiers and civilians of their identity, mobility, and dignity. Rebuilding these wounds requires not only extraordinary talent, but also the specialized tools of microsurgery—high precision instruments, tracheostomy tubes, surgical scopes, and microsutures.
Right now, our military microsurgeons are in desperate need of advanced medical supplies to perform intricate, life-saving procedures. With the right equipment, they can repair damaged nerves, reconnect shattered blood vessels, and reconstruct faces.
However, without the proper tools and surgical supplies, even the most skilled military surgeons are limited in what they can do. Ukraine Defense Support (UDS) already sent our first package package of specialized medical supplies valued at $5,000—enough to support approximately 15 to 20 surgeries. As the war continues and the number of severely wounded patients rises each day, the need for additional tools is urgent.
We are asking for your help!
UDS is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, and 100% of your donation will directly fund critical microsurgical tools for Ukrainian hospitals. In close collaboration with surgical specialists working tirelessly at the front lines, we have identified critical areas where our support can make a real impact. You’ll be giving these doctors the power to save limbs, restore function, and heal some of the most devastating wounds of war. You’ll be standing with the defenders who’ve risked everything—and giving them the care when they need it most.
Please consider making a contribution today. Every dollar brings us closer to putting the right tools in the right hands—where they can do the most good!
