In 2001, 84 people from 40 different countries, came to study together at IMD International in Lausanne – Switzerland for a Master in Business Administration. For the occasion of the 20 year reunion (delayed due to pandemic), our MBA Class 2001 decided to do something charitable. Given the recent events in Ukraine, we chose to support the most vulnerable of all refugees – the children fleeing the conflict and requiring medical treatment. We are very happy to support the amazing work of the University Children’s Hospital in Krakow-Poland and its Foundation „FOR A CHILD’S HEALTH” to care for small patients from Ukraine.  Currently, the most needed medical items include:

• Scale with bioimpedance: 30 000-35 000 PLN
• Infusion Pumps: 8000 PLN (we need 5 pieces) = 40 000 PLN
• Mobile Neonatal Heater: 11 000 PLN (we need 2 pieces) = 22 000 PLN
• Medical beds with height regulation: 2000 PLN (we need 5 pieces) =10 000 PLN
• Puls-oximeters: 4000 PLN (we need a lot of those, at least 10 pieces ) = 40 000 PLN
• Ophthalmology frames + additional elements: 12 000 PLN
• Operating scope: 10 000 PLN

The total cost of the above is about: 160 000 PLN (40 000 USD).
Please, note that $1 is about 4PLN.

We are very proud that the Alumni of the IMD International MBA 2001 Class have decided to support us and help to purchase medical equipment for the treatment of Ukrainian children at our Hospital.
