A part of the income of this evening will be used to finance a mobile ultrasound device for the hospital on Ikaria.
 
Motivation: Ikaria is a remote island and medical treatment is ensured by a small general hospital. Due to the financial crisis their situation became very critical, broken medical devices can not be replaced.
A mobile ultrasound has been chosen for the donation from this evening, as it is essential for first diagnosis. The money gathered during the event at Art Base will offer substantial help to finance the device. It will be topped up by other partners. It is the aim that the organizers of the Ikarian Days buy the device and deliver it directly to the hospital on Ikaria. There is no money transfer, but only face-to-face action, so the money will go directly to the project.
