They need help

Art therapy at the Russian Children’s Clinical Hospital

In 2011, the foundation launched a new art therapy project — each week, the foundation’s staff and volunteers visit young patients in the genetics unit of the Russian Children’s Clinical Hospital, bringing a bit of sun and joy into the grey hospital routine. It is thanks to your help that we can buy materials for creative activities. Thank you very much for making it easier for these young patients to pass time at the hospital; you help them overcome their illnesses.

Barantseva Svetlana, 34 years old

Diagnosis: vertebral column injury. Svetlana needs a new active wheelchair, which costs 104,500 rubles (approx. 3,453 US dollars). She cannot save up such an amount from her disability pension, she needs your help!

Bondarchuk (boy)

Diagnosis: Congenital heart disorder, hypoplastic left heart. The child needs surgery shortly after birth and a subsequent surgery at 3 months. The estimated delivery date is June 9. The child needs your help to pay for treatment.

Grishin Sasha, 9 years old

Diagnosis: Cystic fibrosis, pseudomonas infection. Sasha needs urgent antibacterial therapy with Tobramycin. The treatment course cost is 265,000 rubles (approx. 8,756 US dollars). He needs your help!

Matveyev Vladimir, 16 years old

Diagnosis: Insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus. Due to unstable blood glucose levels Volodya has been recommended to use an implantable insulin pump, which would automatically deliver the required insulin dose into the blood. The cost of the device with expendable materials is 160,315 rubles (approx. 5,297 US dollars). He needs your help!


Success stories

Lipina Svetlana, 7 years old

Diagnosis: cerebral palsy, epilepsy. Sveta spends most of her time at home, where she does rehabilitation exercises. It is hard to provide all the necessary equipment for effective rehabilitation at home, especially the training devices. Sveta’s parents don’t have money to buy them, the cost is 45,976 rubles (1,600 dollars). They need your help!

Molchanova Ksusha, 14 years old and Molchanov Sasha, 8 years old

Diagnosis: Cystic fibrosis complicated by Pseudomonas infection. These children require immediate medical help. They need antibiotic treatment with Colistin. For the two of them, the total cost of this therapy is 290,000 rubles (approx. 9,666 USD).

Pogorelov Dima, 7 years old

Diagnosis: Cystic fibrosis, Pseudomonas infection. This infection is destroying the boy’s lungs, and Dima needs treatment with expensive antibiotics that may help stop the progression of the disease. These antibiotics are not subsidized, and so the cost of purchasing these drugs falls entirely on the parents’ shoulders. Dima needs 3 packs of Brimotoma now, which costs 265,000 rubles (approx. 8,833 USD). His family does not have that kind of money.

Yulia and Sasha Nefyodova, age 4

Diagnosis: cystic fibrosis complicated by a Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection. The girls’ condition is extremely critical . A course of TOBI antibiotics is urgently needed, but their mother — a single mother of several children — cannot afford the medication. Yulia and Sasha’s treatment costs 525,720 rubles (approx. $17,852). They really need your help!
