The mobile medical unit saves the homeless from the deadly threat of cold by providing them with the necessary assistance.

The responsibility of medical volunteers who serve the disadvantaged is a great deal of dedication and love for people. They are involved in various spheres of life, helping to heal both physical and mental wounds.
In the city of Odesa, volunteers have set up warming stations at Kulikovo Pole where they work around the clock. Their goal is to support people who could die of hypothermia in the cold. Here, everyone has the opportunity to warm up with a hot lunch, drink tea, and receive important help as part of the Mobile First Aid Station initiative, which is an ambulance that works to support the homeless in their physical health.
Dozens of people who are unable to take care of themselves properly have already turned to it. Their stories are different, but most have one thing in common: life on the streets leaves deep marks, both in their minds and bodies.
Medical volunteers deal with serious cases every day: advanced wounds, serious frostbite, burns.
The cold weather is a real challenge for the homeless, and without proper help, even minor injuries can turn into life-threatening ones. We often see people who come in with swollen, almost black hands or feet from the cold. If we do not intervene in time, the only option is amputation. But thanks to years of work on the streets, volunteers have been able to prevent such consequences more than once.
When we face critical situations, we need to organize transportation to medical facilities and other urgent measures.
The mobile first aid station provides daily bandages, consultations and support.
It gives a chance for life. After all, a sick person often feels unwanted, and the opportunity to receive care and treatment makes them realize that they are not alone. Volunteers give a part of their love, which inspires them to do this important work.
"I thought that everything was over... I could only wait for the worst," says Oleksiy, one of the mission's wards, "But when you took me, bandaged me, gave me medicine... it was a miracle. I recovered. I could not believe that someone cared."
This is just one story, but there are many more. Each bandaged finger, each saved leg is another chance for someone to return to life.
