Ambroseevka Hospital

In early March, 2016, Russell Bentley and Donbass Humanitarian Aid (DHA) were contacted by Doctor Olga Jammoul in Ambroseevka. The regional hospital there serves the city of 30,000 people and the surrounding villages. Treatment is free, but medicine is not, and the hospital was running out of many vital supplies. Dr. Olga contacted us and asked for help.

We went to Ambroseevka, met with Dr Olga and the hospital director, determined the needs and our abilities and came up with a plan – we would bring $2,500 worth of needed medicines in one month.

This time was needed to raise the necessary funds, go to Rostov in Russia, buy supplies, get all required permissions and then deliver the aid to the hospital in Ambroseevka. It was still Winter and road conditions were rough, but our intrepid friends were ready and willing.

DHA worked with other organizations around the world to raise the needed funds Organizations from the USA., Russia and Germany were involved, as well as individual donors from as far away as New Zealand also contributed. The money was raised and carefully spent at a wholesale discount pharmacy in Russia. We counted every penny, and got a great deal on everything we needed. The paperwork for the border crossing and importation of the medicine were completed in record time.

DHA raised and contributed $1,000. Spendaktoinen fur Novorussia, a German Humanitarian aid group, also contributed $1,000, and varios humanitarian groups in Russia, including Essence of Time, contributed money, medicine vehicles and driver to bring the total to $3,500 worth of medicine, delivered to the Ambroseevka hospital BEFORE the deadline.

The doctors and directors of the hospital, the local city administration and the local people themselves were elated and very appreciative. This mission has made a huge difference for all the people in the area. We will be returning on April 23rd. The local music school will hold a concert in our honor, and we are hoping the Mayor will attend. The thanks is appreciated, but doing good is its own reward.

We are very, very happy with the results of this campaign, and we want to convey our heartfelt thanks to all who contributed, and also say thanks to God, without whose Blessings, nothing is possible. His hand guided us all along our way. We would also like to give special thanks to the drivers, who helped with delivery. One driver named Gennady drove 36 hours straight, over rough roads, to help us complete this mission. We gave more than asked for, and did it sooner than expected. Thanks to ALL who helped. God bless you!
