I welcome the new partners of @Zelenska_FND – Direct Relief, led by CEO Amy Weaver. Yesterday, we signed a $750,000 cooperation agreement. In 2027, these funds will help develop the Schools of Superheroes and psychosocial support programs for children. We plan to open five more educational spaces in hospitals and continue programs for children who need recovery and the opportunity to spend time with their peers. Childhood cannot be postponed until the war is over. I am grateful to Direct Relief for their trust and willingness to work together to create space for learning, development, and a better future.

First Lady Olena Zelenska reminds us that each child gets just one childhood. Even in war, children deserve to learn, make friends and dream of who they might become. Thank you, Madam First Lady, for helping Ukraine’s children heal, grow and imagine a future without war.
Вітаю нових партнерів @Zelenska_FND – Direct Relief на чолі із CEO Емі Вівер. Напередодні ми підписали угоду про співпрацю на $750 тисяч. У 2027 році ці кошти допоможуть розвивати Школи Супергероїв і програми психосоціальної підтримки дітей. Плануємо відкрити ще п’ять освітніх осередків у лікарнях і продовжити програми для дітей, які потребують відновлення та можливості бути серед однолітків. Дитинство не можна відкласти до завершення війни. Дякую Direct Relief за довіру й готовність разом створювати простір для навчання, розвитку та кращого майбутнього.

In the West Bank, hospitals continuously face a short supply of medical necessities and equipment. With support from @DirectRelief, Anera installed 44 medical refrigerators across 14 health facilities, expanding safe storage space for temperature sensitive medicines, particularly in emergency rooms and high-demand departments. Beyond the equipment itself, this donation improves emergency preparedness, protects the quality of essential medicines, and eases the burden on frontline healthcare workers who operate in increasingly difficult conditions. @PQMD #PQMDPartners
