Charity instead of presents
Fundraising for Paul O'Gorman Lifeline
Story
I'm turning 21 on March 4th. Instead of receiving gifts I have decided to ask for donations towards charity fund "Tabletochki" (represented on Justgiving by Paul O'Gorman Lifeline), for one certain ward of the fund: little Lena Krutiy, 13 years old girl, who suffers from lymphoblastic leukemia. She needs a bone marrow transplantation abroad, which will give her a chance to beat cancer.
A little bit about the fund:
"Tabletochki" ("Pills") is an international charity fund that protects the interests of children with blood cancer in Ukraine.
During five years of work they have sent 20 children abroad for treatment, provided medicine to 1350 young patients, and achieved safe blood transfusions in the biggest national hospital for kids “Okhmatdyt”.
Fund provides psychological and palliative care, help parents, and develop the volunteer and donor movement in Ukraine.
I personally trust this fund the most and I know exactly now they spend raised money, as you can find all the reports at their website.
Just a small contribution can save a life.
Donating through JustGiving is fast and totally secure. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to "Tabletochki".
