Kira Rudik joined the charity challenge in support of the Center for Pediatric Cardiology and Cardiac Surgery

A challenge to collect funds for the reconstruction of the Center for Pediatric Cardiology and Cardiac Surgery — #60SecondsCardioforCardiacCenter — was launched on Ukrainian social networks. It was joined by Ukrainian MP, «Golos» party leader, ALDE Vice President Kira Rudik. «I support Lesia Vasylenko’s initiative and join her cardio challenge. Firstly, it's good for your health; secondly, the goal is really important. We need to collect almost 2.3 million US dollars for the reconstruction of the Center for Pediatric Cardiology and Cardiac Surgery, which russia destroyed with a missile attack on July 8. The essence of the challenge is simple — post your 60 seconds of cardio training and pass the torch to your friends. Of course, include a link to the page for donation. Those who find it difficult to do cardio can skip the exercise and donate a larger sum. Join in!», — the politician said. The Center for Pediatric Cardiology and Cardiac Surgery is a unique facility that saves the lives of young Ukrainians with heart defects. It was damaged by the explosion of a russian missile that hit the Okhmatdyt Children's Center on July 8, 2024. The building and equipment of the medical facility were damaged. For it to start working again, it needs to be restored as soon as possible, and the cost is estimated at 2.3 million dollars.
