Olexandr "Alex" Fedun
Help Him to Walk Again
Meet Alex, a 24-year-old former airborne hero who fearlessly volunteered for the Ukrainian Defense Forces in February 2022. Displaying unwavering courage, he sacrificed his well-being for the sake of his country. During a harrowing incident on May 5th, 2022, Alex sustained life-changing injuries, losing both legs in action.
Imagine facing the world without freedom of movement. Letting go of the simple joy of walking to pick up your child or being able to climb a set of stairs to your favorite coffee shop. Forever losing the ability to experience the full embrace of life's many opportunities.
​
Alex’s journey toward embracing prosthetic legs is unique and inspiring.
Donated funds are more than “off-the-shelf” solutions. In Alex’s case, we had to work hard to find proper medical teams that could accommodate the unique circumstances of his prosthetic needs. That requires consultations with leading experts, multiple fittings, and recovery time. All of which require funding.
​
The impact of prosthetic legs goes far beyond mobility. Giving Alex a chance to walk again will restore a brave soldier’s dignity, independence, and confidence. These innovative devices allow recipients to walk again and empower them to participate actively in the local communities, helping to rebuild and restore a war-torn region of the world. The Russo-Ukrainian war may be overwhelming to change, but we can make a significant difference in this life right now.
Your contribution to this crowdfunding campaign will bring the best-fit prosthetic legs to Alex, allowing him to walk with pride, pursue his dreams, and embrace life with open arms. Donate now and become a catalyst for positive change.
