The United Nations Development Programme and the European Union have donated 90 oil-filled heaters to the Rudnev Mother and Child Centre in Dnipro, Ukraine.
The devices will help the medical facility get through the coming winter despite heating problems due to Russia’s deliberate destruction of Ukraine’s energy infrastructure.
The centre serves more than 4,200 young patients a month. It currently provides services not only to the local population, but also to internally displaced people from eastern Ukraine.
The heaters were purchased and delivered by the UN Recovery and Peacebuilding Programme with funding from the European Union.
