Since 2008, a charitable organization has been operating in Russia to help children with brain cancer. The founder, ideological inspirer of the organization is Konstantin Yuryevich Khabensky. The relief fund is named after him - the Konstantin Khabensky Charitable Foundation.
Fund activities
Statistics is an inexorable thing: in the Russian Federation, about 850 children are annually diagnosed with brain cancer, which is about 96% of all oncology of the central nervous system (central nervous system). This indicator is the second after leukemia in frequency. It is not enough to diagnose a disease and operate, a rehabilitation period is needed, it takes more than one year, and therefore the number of children in need of help and support is growing. Knowing these problems from the inside, the Khabensky Foundation defined the mission of the organization: “To be there in time and help!”
For 8 years, the organization has been helping children with brain diseases and other pathologies. The main task is targeted assistance to a specific child taken under guardianship by a public organization. Assistance includes diagnosis, treatment, rehabilitation period.
Fund programs
The Khabensky Foundation has developed four main assistance programs:
- enlightenment - "Know and not be afraid";
- charity - "Targeted assistance";
- professionalism - "Assistance to medical institutions of the Russian Federation";
- rehabilitation - "Happiness Therapy".
Each direction has its own priorities in the development and expansion of activities. Funds received by the organization without a targeted assignment are directed to the implementation of the next task. Donations in the name of the child are spent on treatment or rehabilitation.
Objectives of the Fund's programs
- "To know and not be afraid." The objectives of the program are the development of early diagnosis of diseases, improving the quality of therapeutic measures, educational activities among the population, aimed at reducing fear of the sick and the disease. All funds received by the Know and Not to Be Afraid program are used to improve the qualifications of doctors, organize educational programs for doctors, prepare and publish information materials about serious brain diseases, the need for examinations, and methods of treating diseases. Also, within the framework of this program, information assistance is provided to families with sick children.
- "Targeted help". On the page of the Fund's official website in the "Targeted Assistance" tab, each person can make a contribution for the treatment of a child. There you can also see how much money was received formedical or rehabilitation measures. The Khabensky Charitable Foundation welcomes even the smallest help, because big victories grow from small deeds. You can not only sympathize, but also contribute to the recovery, and often saving a child's life. This simple action is available to everyone. A child taken under guardianship has its own page where you can follow the progress of recovery, hobbies, joys and victories.
- "Assistance to medical institutions of the Russian Federation". The Khabensky Foundation devoted this branch of activity to solving social problems. The program purchases medical equipment for diagnosing brain diseases in children and supplies it to medical centers throughout Russia. Donations under this program are also used to purchase drugs and consumables needed in the diagnostic process.
- "Happiness Therapy". This is the most joyful of the programs, but no less significant in terms of therapeutic effect. The main task is to provide moral support to children under treatment and help parents to overcome the difficult period. As part of the program, outdoor concerts are organized by volunteers, playgrounds are created for children in pediatric oncology departments, and artists are involved in concert activities as part of the Stars Against Cancer project.
