2020 Impact Report

THE 2020 IMPACT REPORT FROM GIFT OF LIFE 

Thank you all for the support of the Gift of Life Foundation and families in our care. With your generous contributions, we continue helping children and young adults in Russia to beat cancer and life-threatening blood diseases.

It has been a challenging year for all of us, especially for young patients in need of vital medications and treatments unavailable in Russia. For many, the Gift of Life’s support is the only chance to receive such treatment be it rare and expensive chemotherapy or a bone marrow transplant from a foreign donor. The global pandemic of COVID-19 might have separated us physically, but it united us in our urge to help those in need.  

During 2020, 36 children received the support of the charity, and our programme costs for medical expenses exceeded £532,082. It could not have been possible without you donating, volunteering, raising funds in aid of the foundation and helping us at every step of the journey. Thank you very much!

It is our pleasure to share with you the stories of some of the children who benefited from our programme work and celebrate the charity’s achievements. The 2020 Impact Report of Gift of Life is here for you.
