15 Years of Making a Difference, Together

By Anastasiia Baraniuk | Donor Acquisition Manager

Our dearest Friend,

Have you ever wondered what your support can make possible over time?

A child receiving the medicine they need. A hospital better equipped to provide treatment. Parents who can focus on being there for their child, knowing they don't have to face every challenge alone.

These moments may seem separate, but together, they tell a much bigger story. And this October, as Tabletochki celebrates 15 years of supporting children with cancer and their families in Ukraine, we want you to know that you are part of that story.

Over the past 15 years, with the support of thousands of caring people, we have helped more than 8,500 families navigate the challenges of childhood cancer.

Together, we have helped provide children with hundreds of essential medicines to treat cancer, relieve pain, and support their immune systems. We have equipped hospitals with diagnostic and treatment equipment and supported training for healthcare professionals. We have helped families through the hardest moments of treatment, advocated for lasting improvements in childhood cancer care, and worked to strengthen the healthcare system.

Behind these achievements are thousands of individual acts of kindness and decisions to make a difference. Each one has helped create more opportunities for children to receive the care they need and for families to feel less alone during an incredibly difficult time.

Behind the number — more than 8,500 families — are children's dreams, parents' worries, difficult days of treatment, and moments when life became a little easier. We cannot take away all the challenges these families face, but together, we can help ensure they don't have to face them alone.

And our story is still unfolding.

Tabletochki continues to support children with cancer and their families at every stage of treatment and beyond. There is still much to do, and we remain committed to making childhood cancer care better and ensuring families can count on support when they need it most.

Thank you for being part of these 15 years of change. Your support has helped make so much possible, and we hope you'll stay by our side as we continue this work for children and families in Ukraine

798 reasons to say thank you

By Anastasiia Baraniuk | Specialist of Individual Fundraising

Dear supporter,

When you donate to help children with cancer, you probably picture the medicine that saves their life. And you'd be right. But your support provides something just as vital: the electricity that keeps hospital machines running, a sense of calm during procedures, and the knowledge that someone cares.

Today, we want to share the incredible impact your kindness made possible in the first quarter.

WHEN HELP CAN'T WAIT

The most visible part of cancer treatment is also the most urgent — medicines, diagnostic tests, the clinical basics a child's recovery depends on. Thanks to your support, 513 families received over $330,000 for critical medicines, specialized supplies, and essential tests. Your generosity allowed us to act quickly, ensuring that treatment never stops.

But emotional support matters just as much. A child going through treatment is still a child — they want to play, laugh, and have fun. That's why our team and volunteers regularly visit children in hospitals. In the first quarter alone, we organized around 80 workshops, 2 Pizza Days, and 2 Beauty Days.

KEEPING HOSPITALS RUNNING

In total, hospitals received $210,000 worth of essential medications and equipment.

This winter, we helped them cope with power outages caused by Russian attacks on Ukraine's energy infrastructure. For children receiving cancer treatment, a blackout isn't an inconvenience — it's a crisis. Thanks to your support, we were able to connect additional power generators at the National Children's Specialized Hospital "Ohmatdyt" in Kyiv.

THE INCREDIBLE POWER OF CARTOONS

Sometimes the most important supplies are unexpected — like a new projector for Ohmatdyt's radiology department. Now, instead of staring at a loud, intimidating medical machine, children can watch their favorite cartoons during radiation therapy sessions. It's a simple piece of technology, but it replaces fear with comfort.

Across the first quarter, the foundation reached 798 children and their families with nearly $1.1 million in support — all made possible by donors like you. Every change, from a life-saving medication to a child's smile, happened because you chose to help.

Thank you for making their treatment a little more bearable. Please continue to stand with Ukrainian children.

Where do women's rights truly begin?

By Anastasiia Baraniuk | Specialist of Individual Fundraising

Dear Friend,

Every year on March 8, the world marks International Women’s Day — a moment to celebrate women’s achievements and stand for equality. But we often forget where those rights truly begin. They begin with a girl's most basic right of all — the right to grow up.

Kateryna is two years old. She is the kind of child who fears nothing. Not the tiny bugs she'd crouch down to study on the sidewalk. Not the tall staircase her mother perpetually rescued her from. The world, to Kateryna, was an endlessly exciting place to explore.

Then, just days after her second birthday, something happened that no child should ever have to face. Stage IV cancer left her so weak that she could no longer even turn her head. The diagnosis came suddenly, and the fight began immediately.

Over the past two months, Kateryna has completed four rounds of chemotherapy. Today, she is is walking and playing again. But her journey is not over. She still needs 4–6 additional chemotherapy cycles, followed by surgery, immunotherapy, and radiation to give her a real chance at recovery.

Vika is also two. Her treatment began in August 2024, and she has been fighting ever since. In February, she underwent major surgery and is still recovering in the hospital today.

You would not know it from looking at her. Vika makes friends with everyone — doctors, nurses, the entire ward staff — and greets each morning the same way: with open arms and a hug for anyone willing to accept one.

International Women’s Day is a reminder of the strength, leadership, and potential within every girl. One day, these children could become scientists, entrepreneurs, teachers, innovators, leaders — people who shape industries and transform communities. Their potential is limitless. But first, they need to recover.

Please, make a donation today. Help Kateryna, Viktoriia, and hundreds of other girls get back their most fundamental right — the right to a future.
