?? Mykola Viyuk, known as Sergeant “Viyun”, has successfully completed his high bilateral prosthetic treatment with Revived Soldiers Ukraine! 5 months ago, he arrived in the United States with the support of the Pharmaceutical Company Acino to begin the process of complex double bionic prosthetic treatment worth $60,000. We would also like to thank Tetyana Siroochenko and Ruslana Deykun, who organized a Facebook fundraiser and raised $12,165 for Mykola's prosthetics. Revived Soldiers Ukraine fully covered all non-medical expenses, which amounted to $10,360 for five months of his stay in the United States. In Ukraine and Europe, doctors were unable to help the soldier because the amputation was so high. But nothing will stand in the way of the Revived Soldiers Ukraine team! 11 months after his injury, Mykola took his first steps at Prosthetic & Orthotic Associates (POA) in Orlando. “The first step was a moment of real happiness for me,” Mykola says, ”Now I plan to return to Ukraine, hug my family, take my son to kindergarten, and find a job. Thanks to the support of Revived Soldiers Ukraine and Acino, I believe that all these plans will soon become a reality.” Mykola's prosthetic treatment was one of the most difficult, as the serviceman is missing both stumps. At first, Mykola tried walking on training short prostheses, and later, he was fitted with bionic prostheses for the first time. Each bionic leg is equipped with an electronic knee and weighs about 8 kg (17 lb). For 5 months, the Prosthetic & Orthotic Associates (POA) prosthetists worked on improving our hero's prostheses and teaching him to keep his balance, walk properly with and without help. Mykola Viyuk, 41, is a native of the village of Buhayivka, Rivne region. Since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, he has served in the 25th Brigade of the Air Assault Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. In February 2023, during fierce fighting near the city of Kreminna in the Luhansk region, Mykola sustained a severe mine-blast wound that resulted in the high amputation of both legs. While saving his comrades, he managed to capture 10 occupants, but was hit by a 120-caliber mine himself. The explosion damaged both legs, and the warrior applied a tourniquet to one leg on his own, a combat medic helped him with the other side. The evacuation of Mykola lasted five hours; his comrade carried him on his shoulders under continuous enemy fire. But despite the lost “golden hour” to save his limbs, Mykola survived and did not surrender! His friend Andriy Chobit wrote a book about Mykola Viyuk's life and military adventures titled “Sergeant Viyun.” In this novel, the author recounts actual events, including this particularly significant day. The book has become a popular item at our charity auctions. Mykola successfully raised $27,000 — the equivalent cost of a prosthetic leg for a seriously injured Ukrainian serviceman. ???? ??????

The NextStep Ukraine team proudly participated in the Kyiv Marathon of Invincibility 2024! ?????? Our heroes - veterans and servicemen who were seriously injured in the fight for Ukraine - started the symbolic 100-meter race. Every step they took embodied the strength of spirit and indomitability of the Ukrainian people. Despite amputations and severe injuries, our soldiers once again demonstrated incredible courage and a thirst for life and Victory. They showed the whole world that no wounds will break their will and desire to move forward. We are grateful to you, invincible Defenders of Ukraine, for this day. Your bravery is an inspiration to us all! ???? Thanks to Run Ukraine - the organizers of the legendary Kyiv City Marathon - for the unforgettable experience and the opportunity to be a part of the League of Invincibility and the "Make Next Step from Ukrnafta" Fundraiser!

We are expanding for our Defenders! We are excited to announce that Revived Soldiers Ukraine is expanding its efforts to support Ukraine's severely wounded soldiers. Our center in Irpin is being enhanced with a new rehabilitation area and state-of-the-art high-tech equipment to aid the recovery of our heroes. Today, NextStep Ukraine stands as one of the top neurotrauma rehabilitation centers in Ukraine. Through the nonprofit’s dedication, rehabilitation after severe injuries in our country has reached a global standard. Following the opening of a second center in Lviv last year, we are now elevating our first center in Irpin, which was established in 2018, to the same level of excellence. With the support of our longstanding donors, we have recently added an additional large area to our facility and have already commenced renovation work. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Ostap Korkuna, Daria Korkuna, Inna and Yuri Deychakiskiy, Vitaliy Kytnyy, Selfreliance Federal Credit Union, Motria Melnyk, Taras Drozd, and The Heritage Foundation for their unwavering belief in our mission and in an unbreakable Irpin. We are pleased to announce that a unique interactive track, the C Mill VR+ 300 from Hacoma in the Netherlands, has arrived in Irpin by special order this Saturday. This is the second device of its kind in Ukraine in terms of its functionality. We funded the purchase of this device for $131,000, with $100,000 generously provided by SoftServe. We are actively seeking sponsors for the procurement of rehabilitation equipment as we continue to support severely wounded Ukrainian servicemen and veterans entirely free of charge. Each day, 45 soldiers receive the necessary and highly important world-class rehabilitation in Ukraine at our NextStep Ukraine rehabilitation centers. We would like to remind everyone that the monthly operating cost of our two rehabilitation centers amounts to $34,000. Every contribution is valuable! We invite you to join us in supporting our heroes through the official website of Revived Soldiers Ukraine: ???? www.rsukraine.org ???? www.rsukraine.org.ua

The United States has announced a large-scale defense aid package worth $7.9 billion to Ukraine and imposed new sanctions on russia. This support is an important step towards strengthening Ukraine's defense capabilities. At the same time, the largest advocacy event of the Ukrainian diaspora on Capital Hill, the Ukraine Action Summit American Coalition for Ukraine in Washington, DC., came to an end. 500 delegates from all 50 states discussed the aid package with representatives of the Congress and the Senate. As part of the summit, Roman Vengrenyuk, a representative of Revived Soldiers Ukraine, met with Congresswoman Rep. Madeleine Dean who represents Pennsylvania's 4th District, where seriously wounded Ukrainian servicemen are being treated.

It was an honor of a lifetime to continue to fight for veterans and military families at the Democratic National Convention by supporting the Union Veterans Council and the US-Ukraine Veterans Bridge. A group of veterans and military spouses started the week giving back to the local Chicago community by turning ‘Rucksacks to Backpacks’ at the beautiful National Veterans Art Museum with Truman National Security Project and Brighton Marine. There’s still a lot of work to do to make sure veteran and military family voices are heard throughout our government, but it was inspiring to see so many people from different backgrounds coming together with a shared commitment of honoring the sacrifices of those who have served around the world. A special thank you to Gov. Wes Moore for taking the time to meet with an injured Ukrainian veteran receiving care in Chicago through the hard work of Revived Soldiers Ukraine! #VeteransHelpingVeterans #SecondService Razom & William Attig
