Earlier this year, Vail Valley residents Kelli Rohrig, Tyler Schmidt
and a group of supporters launched Limbs for Liberty, a nonprofit
that matches prosthetic doctors with Ukrainians who have lost limbs
as a result of the war. On Sunday, the nonprofit is bringing its
first Ukrainian amputee to Colorado.
Though Limbs for Liberty has matched several other Ukrainian amputees
with doctors in Minnesota and Florida, 23-year-old Andrey Chersak
will be the first to receive a prosthetic by a Colorado doctor,
through Hanger Clinic in Boulder. Limbs for Liberty has raised
$15,000 to fund Chersak´s flight, food and other expenses.
