On the occasion of International Children's Day on 1 June the OSCE
Office in Yerevan today donated medical equipment to Yerevan State
Medical University's Mouratsan Hospital, which specializes in treating
children with haematological problems.
The donation, which also includes toys and stationary items for
children, was made possible by the proceeds from the OSCE Charity Ball.
Ambassador Sergey Kapinos, Head of the OSCE Office in Yerevan, said:
"We hope that this equipment will contribute to better treatment of
patients in the hospital. It is also a good occasion, in advance of
International Children's Day, to make the children smile and forget
about their health problems, even for one day."
Armen Ashotyan, the Armenian Minister of Education and Science said:
"This step shows that the OSCE attaches highest priority to human
values, especially in securing human life". He added that in support
of the OSCE initiative, additional funds are being allocated to meet
the urgent needs of the hospital.
The medical equipment includes a perfusor with systems, a water bath
for plasma, an oximeter and a haemoglobin-meter.
Every year an OSCE Ball is organized in Vienna in the framework of
which participants collect money to be used for charity purposes.
