NADEZDA CH A R ITA BLE FOUNDATION
O u r a c h i e v e m e n t s s o fa r
Charity fund "Nadezda" was registered in August 2015 in Tver, Russia and its main purpose is helping vulnerable children in two main directions: medical help to children with different illnesses and disabilities and financial support to gifted children (grants for further education). Some of the achievements in our 3 years of work include:
•
sending 90 children with cerebral palsy to rehabilitation clinics throughout Russia.
•
buying medical equipment for three children's hospitals and
•
allowing children with poor health access to it free of charge.
fundraising for special grants for gifted children to go to
colleges and universities.
All money raised tonight will go d i r e c t ly t owa r d s h e l p i n g t h e c h a r i t y and thank you for your willingness to support our cause.
