Story
We are all of us witnessing on all media outlets the truly horrific scenes of death and destruction perpetrated by the Russian army upon civilians in the war in Ukraine. There is clearly a massive, urgent need for vital humanitarian and medical aid for the victims of these unprovoked atrocities. The war in Ukraine has also drastically affected provision of Dental Services throughout the country, not only in areas affected by actual conflict but also in the wider territory because of the displacement of the population. DENTISTRY STANDS WITH UKRAINE set up by retired dentist Leo Jurkiw is trying to address this need.

2 years agoDentists Stand with Ukraine becomes Dentistry Stands with Ukraine! Because of the continued need of dentists in Ukraine whose lives and practices have been devastated by the invasion of their country by Russia, it has been decided to modify the name of our fundraising page in order to reach out more effectively to the entire dendal team. We continue to receive pleas for help from dentists such as Valeriy Brahynets from Chernihiv north of Kyiv (near Chernobyl) who sent this photo of his surgery following bombardment by Russian forces.
