14 WWW.UNWLA.ORG “НАШЕ ЖИТТЯ”, ВЕРЕСЕНЬ 2016 Campers in UNWLA-sponsored camp in Donetsk Every president, whether in Ukraine or here in the United States, brings her own strengths and talents to the office. In the face of global and organizational ups and downs, we have been able to find a path of mutual understanding to work together for the good of Ukraine. I am pleased to share information about some of the most recent successes with our readers. On Tuesday, August 2, the UNWLA made a very interesting contribution to the medical ed- ucation of the Lviv 80 th brigade of paratroopers of Ukraine. The thrust of our endeavor was the presentation of “Taras M,” a robot simulator designed to help teach first-aid skills related to chest compressions and ventilation. The system offers a tutorial that is most effective in training cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Approximately a dozen of the paratroopers in this brigade have been trained by Patriot Defense (by Ulana Su- prun’s staff and volunteers) and will now share their training with the help of “Taras.” There will be a permanent plaque installed in the room where the training will be held, with an inscrip- tion stating that “Taras” is a gift from the UN- WLA. This summer, the UNWLA funded a summer camp for children who live in the Do- netsk Region, in the zone of ATO. The name and motto of the camp was “Do not fear! Be free!” and the camp, located in the city of Konstantynivka, was open from July 26 through August 4. The short and long term goals of the camp model are to support and educate children who are in the ATO zone; to create a favorable environment for their development, education, recreation, and healthy lifestyle; and to teach children not to be afraid but to feel free as individuals and to make friends with others in the camp. The camp was organized by Rev. Fr Stepan Sus, Head Army Chaplain of the Lviv Archdiocese of the UGCC, with whom the UNWLA has developed a working relationship. We look forward to sharing the events of our upcoming trip to Ukraine with you in the Oc- tober 2016 issue of Our Life . Until then . . .
