Our volunteers from Cologne have congratulated the care-receiver Dima Sh. on his birthday. The holiday in the hostel of the Cologne University Clinics was very joyful and interesting. We painted masks, played, and talked. We have managed to fulfill Dima’s dream – to give him as a present the Lego train, which he has assembled immediately .

I congratulate you all with the Luminous Easter! Let us participate in this victory of Life over the death!
Dear friends, in last month we have accepted 20 new requests for help while going on working on the previous ones. Our volunteers organize the search for proper clinics, the arrival to the country, translations of the medical documents, the support of the German funds, and the various assistance on the spot.
Owing to your ongoing support, we were able to help financially to several families, this counts the costs of the flight for urgent kidney transplant surgery to Rosa Knezevic as well as help to pay for the housing and treatment of our care-receivers Abdullina Adelina, 4 years old, leukemia, Alice Terekhova, 13 years old, ganglioglioma relapse, Sofia Dukashova, 8 years old, leukemia.
Thank you for your support and your kind hearts!
