  1. To assist Ukrainian refugees with essential\/basic needs,The Corvallis Sister City Association-Uzhhorod Council (CSCA-U) has created The Uzhhorod Refugee Fund (\u201cURF\u201d).The objective was to raise a combined $500,000 through donations made to accounts established at Citizens Bank in Corvallis, OR and GoFundMe.<\/span>Using this Fund we decided to start \u201ctaming\u201d of our potential patients from the adjacent hostels-shelters\u00a0 even before we launched the Clinic. Besides, we thought\u00a0 that\u00a0 the visit of our dear friends from the USA\u00a0 Mark and Alice Rampton to Uzhhorod\u00a0 would be a good opportunity\u00a0 to announce about the start of our Clinic through the local media. The idea was to involve refugee children living at the hostels and the children artists from the Palace of Youth Creativity \u00a0into improving\u00a0 the territory surrounding the hostels. We decided to decorate in paint the ramps leading to the hostels with the national flags of Ukraine, the USA, the European Union. This\u00a0 action has to symbolize the gratitude of our people for the\u00a0 help in the fight against the Russian invaders.We have invited volunteer doctors, residents and artists and art teachers from the Palace, whole families living at the hostels,local media. We have financed paints and all necessary instruments, gloves and aprons and let the children create at their own discretion. Dozens of people\u00a0 including\u00a0 American guests took part in the event too. That was a holiday of the Clinic launch !<\/li>\n
  2. If you remember our Project, we planned to invite\u00a0 foreign family medicine experts, who were\u00a0 to provide free hands-on consultations and demonstrations for the local family medicine trainees and students? We started\u00a0 putting this idea into practice already thanks to Dr Mark Rampton and\u00a0 Dr William Chickering taking advantage of their visiting Uzhhorod. <\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Dr Rampton basing on his personal private Clinic experience\u00a0 gave us rather valuable consultation on the justified structure of a new premises\u00a0 which was in fact the eighth variant that we have regarded and we hope would be the last one. Next week we start the reconstruction works.<\/li>\n
  4. Beside providing medications Dr Rapmton from the USA and Mr Chickering from France have brought some medical instruments for the future Clinic that can be already used\u00a0 in medical treatment and teaching of our residents and senior students.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The following is an abstract, of ,so to say, \u00a0 \u201ca view from the outside on Uzhhorod today\u201d\u00a0 by Alice Rampton.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    \u201cTo walk down the street, you would think that all is well and a war must be in another country.\u00a0But then you hear of a funeral for two soldiers yesterday, you see many more soldiers on the streets, more policia presence, Ukrainian flags everywhere, and many more people and traffic as Uzhhorod works hard to accommodate the displaced persons.\u00a0It’s uncanny and the air raid siren brings you back to reality.\u00a0Plus the discussions around the table or with individuals always turn back to the war.\u00a0Today I visited with about 8 women in one of the shelters and learned their stories about leaving their homes in the East and coming west.\u00a0One was fleeing from the war for the second time after moving from the Luhansk region to Kharkiv.\u00a0One knows that her home is destroyed.\u00a0One had lost family members back in\u00a02014.\u00a0That brings reality up close.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

    We’ve been able to see the fruits of the Uzhhorod Refugee Fund at various places .\u00a0Today, we helped deliver a refrigerator, drying racks (oft requested item for laundry), coffee pots, pressure cookers, ironing board and iron, dishes, etc. to one shelter with about 10 moms and 20 kids.\u00a0Great bunch of women with hardship stories but working together to create a good environment for all. We’ve gotten out games (Twister, Connect Four, Memory, Uno) and puzzles and coloring pages and had fun times playing with the kids. Then we leave those activities with them\u201d.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
