We invite all Australian community members to together join with us in supporting the people of Ukraine.
We are all deeply concerned and saddened by the recent and ongoing events in Ukraine, especially for the lives and wellbeing of the civilians on the ground who have been thrust into conflict.
The International Christian Medical and Dental Association (ICMDA) is in regular contact with doctors and dentists throughout the country through the Christian Medical Association of Ukraine (CMA).
CMA is deeply committed to mitigating the effects of the conflict through caring for the wounded, displaced and homeless, offering protection and support to refugees and serving in frontline health facilities.
Emergency Appeal
Healthserve Australia, in conjunction with ICMDA and Christian Medical and Dental Fellowship of Australia (CMDFA), is conducting an appeal that will go toward resourcing and supporting Ukrainian Christian doctors through communications, medical supplies and other aid.
We invite all Australian community members to please give generously to support the people of Ukraine.
Donations to this appeal are tax deductible.
For real-time updates about the situation as it develops and how the resources are being used, please see icmda.net/ukraineappeal
