Valeriia Skorobogach is a young single mom of three kids: Matthew (12 yr.), Mila (11 yr.), and Akim (15 months).

 She is originally from Mariupol, Ukraine. Her father, who pastored a church in Mariupol for many years, was shot and killed by an ambush of Russian soldiers while driving home from church in 2014. Before the war, Valeriia owned a dental office in Bucha, Ukraine but was forced to flee after the Russian troops began to occupy the city. Her office was ransacked, equipment was stolen, and she lost her main source of income.

Valeriia was able to flee Ukraine quickly on a traveling visa, but due to this, she has not been able to qualify for the level of assistance she needs to provide for her kids. She is living in Florida and receiving assistance from friends while taking dental courses (in order to be able to practice in the U.S. and provide for her family).

Her 11-year old daughter, Mila is currently using a broken wheelchair. Repair attempts were made, but did not meet the safety standards of Mila’s school district bus system. As such, Mila is not able to attend school. Valeriia has been carrying her back and forth from the car to the home and is straining her own health to do so.

The school district is requiring that Mila’s wheelchair contains back and neck support for safe transportation. In order to cover the expenses of a new wheelchair for Mila, the family needs to raise about $4,000 (for a basic wheelchair) to $6,000 (for additional safety features).

Currently, Mila is not able to attend school until she secures a new wheelchair. Valeriia has been working to secure a wheelchair for Mila for several months now.

If you find it in your heart to donate in order to support this cause, your donation would be immensely appreciated!
