Bonus Day on Wednesday, March 13th!
By Marina Ouano | Project Leader
We are happy to share good news with you: Sergii, a Ukrainian patient, has successfully recovered after bone marrow transplant and was discharged from the hospital. After 100 days in a special facility where he had access to around-the-clock care in case of potential complications, he went home and will now only come in for checkups. Thank you so much for supporting Sergii!
On Wednesday, March 13th, you can help us earn a bonus from Global Giving by participating in the Bonus Day. Each and every donation (less than $1000) will get 30% more added to it by Global Giving. And those projects that raise the most funds or attract the most donors, will get additional $1000 bonuses.
Thanks again for your support for cancer patients!

Happy Holidays!
By Marina Ouano | Project Leader
Thank you so much for your support for our project!
This year we were able to help eight young cancer patients who traveled to Italy, New York, Houston, Washington, DC and South Carolina for treatment. Lodging costs are a substantial burden for those cancer patients who are unable to access specialized cancer care near home. Sometimes, it is essential for a patient to stay in a special facility where around the clock care is possible. Your help allowed this to happen, and we are deeply grateful.
If you would like to increase impact of your donation, consider signing up as a recurring donor. During December, Global Giving will match 100% the first month's donations (up to $100). Also, projects with most recurring donors are eligible for additional bonuses.
Thanks again for your generosity! Have a happy holiday season and a wonderful New Year!

Make more difference on Wednesday, October 17th!
By Marina Ouano | Project Leader
Dear Friends,
In June I reported about a 21-year old Ukrainian, Sergii, who was planning to undergo bone marrow transplantation at National Cancer Institute. On October 9th he received a transplant from his younger brother who was a perfect match. Now Sergii is going to go through a critically important time, during which his body will adjust to new bone marrow. He will need to be very careful due to high risk of infection, which his body will not be able to fight effectively while his immune system is rebuilding itself.
Sergii needs to stay in an assisted living facility for at least the first 3 months or so. There he will have around the clock access to nursing help, in case of an emergency. Please help us help Sergii be safe during this period.
On Wednesday, October 17th, you will be able to increase your impact during Global Giving Bonus Day campaign. Starting at 12.01 am EDT, our project will get 30% bonus on all donations, until the bonus funds run out. Global Giving will match all donations up to $1,000 per donor.
We will be very grateful for your support!
