I am excited to run the B.A.A. 10K race to raise funds to support cancer and trauma care in Ukraine on Sunday, June 26th! This will be my first race ever :) I am honored to run for this special cause! 

Heal Ukraine is an effort organized by Dr. Nelya Melnitchuouk, a physician originally from Ukraine, to improve cancer and trauma care in Ukraine. Heal Ukraine focuses on physician and patient education in the Ukrainian language that is evidence-based, created by experts and making it available through an open access online educational platform. Heal Ukraine facilitates free peer-to-peer consultations for physicians in Ukraine on variety of medical conditions, including traumatic injuries and other wartime conditions. 

For more information about Dr. Nelya's work on supporting Ukraine through Global Medical Knowledge Alliance, please visit: www.gmka.org

Also a little bit about Brigham and Women’s Hospital (BWH) and Brigham and Women’s Faulkner Hospital (BWFH) ... 

BWH & BWHF care for patients across New England, throughout the United States, and from 120 countries around the world. Every day, our clinicians, researchers, and caregivers work to find new ways to predict, prevent, and treat the most challenging diseases of our time while delivering world-class care with a profoundly human touch. Our Brigham 10K Teammates are proud to fuel quality patient care, innovative training, and life-changing discoveries that will benefit patients here in Boston and around the world, all in support of an area that is meaningful to them.

Thank you for supporting my B.A.A. 10K run on the Heal Ukraine at Brigham and Women’s Hospital.
