For over 20 years, the Victor Pinchuk Foundation has been systematically supporting partner centres of the Cradles of Hope programme, which are engaged in nursing and treating newborn babies. Every year, the Foundation allocates funds for the purchase and repair of equipment, components and consumables to ensure uninterrupted operation. Since the start of the full-scale invasion, this assistance has been significantly increased, especially for medical facilities that continue to operate in close proximity to the front line or provide assistance to large numbers of internally displaced persons.
The Victor Pinchuk Foundation paid for equipment repairs and purchased components for the neonatal intensive care units of five partner centres of Cradle of Hope based at the Chernihiv City Maternity Hospital, Poltava City Children's Clinical Hospital, Kherson Regional Children's Clinical Hospital, Lviv and Rivne Regional Perinatal Centres, at a total cost of UAH 768,000.
On 6-7 November 2025, the Victor Pinchuk Foundation's Cradles of Hope programme held its 16th international scientific and practical conference in Kyiv on the topic of ‘Modern experience in providing care to newborns in complex neonatal cases’.
