Eurocar launches a new stage of the Warmth of Hearts social project«

In April 2016, a new stage of the Warmth of Hearts social project began.
The project is organized by Eurocar, which, together with the SKODA dealer network in Ukraine, has been supporting the State Institution «Heart Institute of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine» with charitable projects for many years.
 
Today, the State Institution “Heart Institute of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine” (formerly “Kyiv City Heart Center”) is the leading specialized scientific and clinical institution in Ukraine in the field of cardiology, heart and great vessels surgery, X-ray and endovascular diagnostics and treatment, vascular surgery and transplantation.
 
One of the priorities of the Heart Institute is the treatment of congenital heart defects in children. However, the lack of government funding means that the Heart Institute does not always have all the necessary supplies to perform complex surgeries on children with heart defects from low-income families and orphans.
 
Therefore, in order to help such children, Eurocar is launching a new stage of the Warmth of Hearts charity project and invites all those who care to join this social initiative.

All visitors to dealerships who wish to support the Heart Institute will be able to take part in the social project. To do this, customers of SKODA dealerships are invited to purchase a Warmth of Hearts sticker, which symbolizes the voluntary initiative of each participant and support for the charity project. Also, as part of the project, all SKODA dealerships will have boxes for collecting charitable funds. Just by buying a sticker or donating an arbitrary amount of money to a charity box, everyone can contribute to saving children's hearts and thus lives.

All proceeds and funds raised within the framework of the Project will be sent by SKODA dealerships on a quarterly basis to the Heart on the Palm charity fund of the Heart Institute to provide surgeries for children with heart defects from low-income families and orphans.

Eurocar has been implementing the Warmth of Hearts charity project since November 2008. The project started with Eurocar donating a SKODA Roomster to the clinic. This car became the first in the Heart Institute's fleet, and now it performs vital work for patients every day. In addition, the funds raised by the Heart Institute Foundation together with the SKODA dealer network contributed to the purchase of an intensive care unit with a transport incubator for newborns. Eurocar annually organizes fundraising for the Heart Institute Foundation through SKODA dealerships. The funds are allocated to the children's department of the Heart Institute for the purchase of medical equipment necessary for cardiac surgery and rehabilitation procedures, as well as for the purchase of necessary consumables.
