27 Ukrainian refugee children with cancer and their families now live in Küsnacht!
The municipality of Küsnacht has set up a home for Ukrainian refugees. Following private initiatives, over 100 people arrived a few days ago, including many sick children. The "Sonnenhof" in Küsnacht (ZH) is the new home of refugees from Ukraine. They arrived in Küsnacht ZH last week in buses and thanks to the individual initiative of entrepreneur Alexander Lüchinger. The "Sonnenhof" has been inhabited again for a few days now; the former old people's home has become an improvised children's home, a home for mothers and a home for the disabled - in short, a hostel where the traumatized victims of war can breathe a temporary sigh of relief.

HELP TOGETHER QUICKLY AND EASILY!
The
Association for Children with Rare Diseases and the municipality of Küsnacht ZH
are running this fundraising campaign together to buy beds, mattresses, pillows, covers, desks, chairs, medicines, mobility to hospital, mobility aids, essential products, etc. for the Ukrainian families (120 people). We will let you know at a later date what has been financed thanks to this fundraising campaign.
The project management for this aid project lies with the municipality of Küsnacht, which can count on numerous motivated volunteers. This Monday, the beds were delivered to the "Sonnenhof" and assembled by volunteers.
To date, CHF 153,949 has been raised thanks to KMSK crowdfunding.
As we have just learned from the mayor Markus Ernst, the municipality of Küsnacht has already donated CHF 200,000 to help in Ukraine. Great!
Now we are asking you for further financial Support. All donations will be used to purchase various goods and services. There is very little we can do for these Families, but it comes from the heart.
Current information and media reports
We were asked what will happen to the infrastructure when the refugees are able to return home one day. All the furniture and equipment will be delivered to the families in Ukraine as soon as this is possible again. At the moment they have to prepare for a longer stay in Küsnacht. All of us (the municipality of Küsnacht, volunteers, benefactors and the Förderverein für Kinder mit seltenen Krankheiten) are doing our best to help the families wherever possible and to show them that they are very welcome in Switzerland.
