The Hope and Belief Charity Foundation was established in Ukraine by individuals and registered on October 13, 2005. The members of the foundation are people, most of whom have themselves gone through the difficult path of treating their children for cancer or are volunteers. The Foundation is a member of the Ukrainian Open Association of Volunteers "Live Tomorrow" and a member of the European Ass

ociation of Cancer Patients ECPC. Today the foundation provides assistance under the programs “Epilepsy is not a death sentence!”, “Pediatric ophthalmology and eye microsurgery”, “Children and cancer”, “Primary immunodeficiencies”, “Diabetes in children”

The main goal of our mission is to provide targeted medical assistance in treatment, payment of medical bills, and equipping patients with medical equipment and consumables. More than 1,200 families received medication assistance to treat their children over the 19 years of the project. More than 40 thousand donors provided their donations to Ukrainian children one-time or regularly.

Friends, today we will talk about schools. About how important it is to involve the school community in charity work. How to form in children the habit of being kinder and more sensitive to each other. And how to make participation in extracurricular charity events both interesting and useful for children at the same time.

It is no wonder that every school regularly holds charity fairs or other activities related to assistance. For the most part, the goal of such events is to help our defenders on the front lines. This has already become a good habit. But during our information campaigns in communities, some schools expressed a desire to hold a charity event in support of their student who needs help with treatment. And it worked! At first, we were afraid of an undesirable reaction from the children, but in vain! The support and sincerity of the children was incredible! The children gladly participate and are happy to help their friend or girlfriend. We can write a lot about the benefits of holding such events, but why… Everyone already understands that everyone benefits from this. Both children and teachers, their parents, and the child themselves, whom they supported.

So we decided to make our work in schools systematic. And now we are looking for a person among parents who would like to engage in the development and implementation of school charity events on a regular basis. This is not about physical participation during the event. It is about developing interesting ideas for implementation, producing the necessary information materials, consulting school teachers and parents on the topic “How to make a school charity event interesting for children”. The work is huge, considering what experience can be attracted and what interesting examples can be found on the Internet. There are a lot of examples and ideas! All this activity must be found, structured, adjusted to our realities, clear instructions and technical materials must be developed. And only then consult those school leaders who are ready to implement these ideas in themselves.

This is a large amount of interesting work that we can offer. Initially on a volunteer basis, and if this activity becomes worthwhile, then you can think about paying for this work. If you have the time, desire and your own vision of the process - write to us on the fund's Viber 067 487 71 22. Welcome to our team! It will be interesting and useful.

Friends, this post is dedicated to a topic that is always a difficult issue for parents who want to help their child and turn to us, but are faced with resistance from their child. Why? Because the child is already an adult and is afraid to share information about himself among his friends. Because the child is afraid of condemnation or smiles from his environment. So is it really worth paying attention to those who may negatively perceive the problem of his friend or acquaintance? Let's try to figure it out.

Khrystyna from the Kozivska community, which is in the Ternopil region. An adult charming girl who dreams of her happy future. But there is an obstacle on this path - and it prevents the girl from moving forward. Khrystyna has type 1 diabetes and the disease can cause irreparable harm to her health and future life. And Khrystyna knows this well. Therefore, the girl understands how important it is for her to have constant accurate control of blood sugar. She needs continuous monitoring sensors. And her community is ready to help her purchase these devices. People collected more than 90 thousand hryvnias for Khrystyna during the month. This is significant and essential support for the girl’s further treatment.

So why pay attention to those who do not understand other people’s pain, who perceive every good deed of their neighbor with envy or malice? Yes, there are such people, but they are very few. Very few! And most people understand their neighbor’s problem as their own, and if they can, they help. This is what you need to understand when you inform the community about your problem. Because of people like this brave girl, the community has the opportunity to discover and apply the best features of humanity. The community unites, becomes alive, is filled with hope and understanding that they are capable if they act together. People feel like a single organism in which no one will be left alone with their misfortune. This feeling is important for a community that strives for a better life for itself and its descendants.

Thank you, Khrystyna! Through you, you gave those around you a wonderful chance to feel authentic.

Christ is Risen! May the Bright Easter Week bring us peace and harmony to our homes. In the meantime, we write about bright cases of goodness that constantly arise around us.

Recently, we gave Kira from Kharkiv region a box with sensors for a year of use. This happened thanks to the help of the Zlatopol community, which responded to the request. The local Facebook group Zlatopil Info was connected to the notification, which was the first to respond and highlight information about the collection for the girl. Later, the local television and radio company "Nadiya" and its editor Yulia Deyneko were involved in the information support. Yulia shot professional videos with Kira's story, which called on the community to participate.
We express our sincere gratitude to everyone who joined the collection! Thanks to your participation, Kira will forget about the constant fear of injections for a year and will preserve her health, which can be destroyed by rivers of sugar rushes.

After receiving the sensors, Kira and her mother made a wonderful video appeal to benefactors, which we are happy to post for viewing - https://www.facebook.com/share/r/1FgTK53327/?mibextid=wwXIfr
How nice to hear sincere words of gratitude from a child.

We wish all our readers a bright and joyful Bright Week!

Friends, today's post is about the future. The future that we create together with you. It's time to tell you about other results of our work, which are a direct consequence of the movements that we carry out in communities.

Once again, we hear that after our appeals to community leaders, and more often after information campaigns for the benefit of children, parents learn that decisions have been made in their communities to support children with diabetes.
For example, 6-year-old Kirill from Dnipropetrovsk region recently received financial support from a local deputy. Not so long ago, 15-year-old Daniel from Rivne region was confirmed to be provided with financial assistance from the local authorities. It's nice to hear that.

And then yesterday we received a letter of sincere gratitude from the mother of Nikita Barabash, in which she writes about long-term changes in the attitude of local authorities towards children with diabetes. The community leadership has decided on systemic assistance. The community is developing a social program to support children with type 1 diabetes.

And this is not the first time that, as a result of our information campaigns, we have pushed government officials to study the problem more thoroughly and adopt appropriate systemic changes. In Cherkasy, after our appeals on Akimov Zlata, the leadership began to study the problem and a decision was made to support a petition to create a city program “Sweet Children of Cherkasy”. It is about providing children with type 1 diabetes with insulin pumps, consumables and continuous glucose monitoring systems at the expense of the city budget.

That is, friends, our work is beginning to bring long-term results. We are happy! Because we have contributed our part to a socially useful cause, and in this way too. And may all children be happy! We are preparing for Easter!

Friends! Today we have a request for you. We have prepared and printed an information booklet about the possibilities of our assistance program. The format of the booklet is small, when folded - a quarter of a regular A4 sheet.
We have already made one and distributed it to parents who receive assistance from us. At that time, new parents who had not seen us on the Internet, but were interested in receiving assistance, contacted us. Yes, not everyone actively travels on social networks and has the opportunity to read about our program. Therefore, we are interested in our booklets appearing in pediatric endocrinologists who are visited by parents. We hope that doctors will bring information to those who need help.

So, if anyone is able to pass on our booklets to their endocrinologist - write to us and we will send you 10-20 copies by Novaya Poshta at our expense. Pick up the booklets at the post office and take them to your doctor when you have the opportunity. This will help those children whose parents do not use social networks and do not know about our activities. Do this useful thing, it is not difficult.

Write to us on Viber 067 487 71 22 and leave requests for booklets. The matter is important.
There is also an opportunity to download the booklet in A4 format and print it yourself on a printer. Of course, this will not be a booklet, but an ordinary printout, but you can still help someone. We give everyone an open link for downloading - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1iLKfAJY7CpJNVONo04i-bBOxCzNv1BIg/view?usp=sharing .

Join us, friends! Spread the information among the parents you know. Let's bring good and help each other.

We start the beginning of April with good news, as is customary. A girl with the double name Anna-Mariya from Ivano-Frankivsk region is receiving sensors for the second time. This time, the total amount of assistance reached 85 thousand hryvnias. This is all thanks to the great support provided to the girl by residents of the Yabluniv community, where the family lives, and the village of Berezivtsi itself. People transferred money and even brought it home to her mother, proving that there are no other people's children.

With this, we continue to report on our March collections. In general, we have taken a significant step forward by starting to use charity banks from Monobank. Both the number of donors and the amounts of collections have grown significantly. Of course, no banks fill up on their own. Behind all this is the daily work of our team, which is gradually growing. People who support the idea of forming a circle of active parents capable of creating an effective community are joining us. Recently, our organization has "grown" with several new people from among the parents of children with diabetes.
We are very happy with the new people! Our capacity is growing and with it our ability to perform large and important tasks.

It's nice to start the new week with good news. We recently gave Sofiyka from the Dnipro region sensors that will leave her fearless.
"Now I will feel free from finger pricking all year round. Thanks to the foundation and caring people who donated money for the sensors, and the employees who work there," says the excited girl.
This became possible thanks to the constant partnership with the platform, the activity of Sofiyka's mother, who helped us organize the collection, and one unknown but sensitive person who "closed" the collection for a large sum.
The collection did not go very quickly, but the Olympic thesis works in our business - the main thing is participation! Parents who themselves take part in pushing their request never go unheard. Thank you to everyone who joined!

And let's not forget about those children who are still waiting for help.
Maria from Kharkiv, whose father defends our country as a volunteer, has only a few thousand hryvnias left to collect. Join us!

March has become rich in school events for us. Now, pleasant news has come from the Rivne region, where 12-year-old Mykyta from our community lives.

The boy has been suffering from diabetes for seven years and of course he needs our help. The collection for Mykyta did not go as briskly as we would have liked. But here the school also got involved. Thanks to the efforts of the teachers of the Myrnensky Lyceum, we managed to organize a charity fair, where you could buy all kinds of goodies made by the families of the students. People made a stand and called the event “Let's unite for good!”.

And so, with a good mood and faith in goodness, the school managed to collect about 20 thousand hryvnias in support of Mykyta. Taking into account this contribution, there will be very little left before the collection closes. And this means that the monitoring sensors that Mykyta so desperately needs will soon arrive in the mail.

But the main thing is not money, but the unity of the community, which heals more than equipment. We express our gratitude to the administration of the Myrnensky Lyceum and the class teacher Romanovych Tatyana Volodymyrivna for organizing the fair. And sincere thanks to the parents of classmates for preparing the goodies!

No one will be left without a gift! Svyatoslav from Kharkiv waited for his sensors for a very long time. Well, it should be noted that it is not so easy for children from big cities to involve their community in help. But we are trying to do something in this direction. In particular, we send letters by mail to the heads of local enterprises with a request to help the child. And it works. Some organizations provide assistance.

Thus, for Svyatoslav from Kharkiv we managed to collect more than 50,000 hryvnias. For one child, this is significant support, because with these funds we can provide Svyatoslav with sensors for 9 months of use. And this is 9 months of peace, life without daily pain from finger pricks and most importantly - prevention of blood sugar spikes, which means preserving the health of the child.

We are grateful to the heads and teams of Kharkiv enterprises that found the opportunity to respond to our request and help Svyatoslav. Yes, times are difficult for business now, so we are happy for every benefactor who does not remain indifferent.
Let's not forget about other children waiting for help.

6-year-old Nastya from Vinnytsia also needs sensors. Even a simple virus completely throws Anastasia off track: sugar becomes uncontrollable, she has to measure glucose much more often, make insulin "tricks". You can watch the video with Nestya and provide help at the link -

We are happy! A significant event in its power! How three schools from one community immediately joined in helping a fifth-grader Sasha from the Rivne region, who suffers from diabetes.

What does this indicate? The idea of holding a charity event for a girl from the community was liked by teachers, parents and educators. Yes, in our experience of holding such events, there were cases when help for a child came from different institutions. But for three schools to pick up this flag at once is the first time!

The children filmed and distributed videos, expressed their support for Sasha, and also conceived and held a charity event “Hearts that Save”. The children drew hearts and glued them to a corresponding stand at school. In general, all this was sincere, interesting and useful for both Sasha and all the children who took part.
And here are the financial results of the joint actions. For Sasha, we have already managed to collect 40 thousand hryvnias on the dobro.ua platform, in addition, a local business company decided to provide Sasha with consumables for the pump for a year, and there are still the results of the charity lottery and the collection at one of the schools ahead, which will already be delivered directly to Sasha's parents.

This is a clear sign that the SVOYM project is taking on a new, interesting and useful direction. We are delighted to watch the actions of the management and teachers of educational institutions. How often do we manage to turn the moral education of children into a simultaneously fascinating story in which we want to take part? Using the example of schools where the SVOYM charity initiative was carried out, we see that children enthusiastically participate, express support and follow the results of the charity campaign with interest. A fantastically optimistic event that inspires confidence in the future that will be created by our children!

We express our sincere gratitude and recognition to the teachers of the Ploskivska Gymnasium named after Petro Nakydalyuk, the Rachynska Gymnasium, and the Nova Nosovytsia village school, who made this important event interesting and exciting for children!

Friends, on the eve of the March holiday, we want to please you with good news. Finally, we have connected another powerful tool to help children - charity banks from Monobank. Yes, they do not collect money by themselves. But considering that we already have a small team, there is a community that is ready to help us spread requests and there are parents who help us create interesting content - success is inevitable.

The charity bank provides a convenient and understandable tool for holding meetings on the Internet, and we have already taken advantage of it. Six children from our community already have such banks and in a week they collected about 100 thousand hryvnias. And this is just the beginning. Each child whose parents agreed to spread their request in the community will have their own charity bank and accumulate funds in it. Convenient and fast. So, another stream that feeds our fund and gives hope to children has flowed and gurgled.

And to all women, we congratulate you on a wonderful spring holiday! Be bright, be smiling, be full of love! You inspire, you fill the world with goodness, and, in general, you are the best!

A sincere and incredibly cute boy Nikita from Sumy region. Looking at him, you can't even guess that he has an incurable disease. I would like to say that he is an ordinary child. But no - he is extraordinary.

The war did its dirty work. A year ago, Nikita's dad, defending the country, did not return from a combat mission. All the time the boy was waiting for a call from his dad, but he did not call... Nikita became too focused on this, thoughts about his dad did not leave him, because they were very close. Even when they could not be together, dad and son talked on the phone for hours. After some time, against the background of a strong shock, Nikita began to lose weight, became lethargic, lost his appetite. Later, in the hospital, they already found out the reason for the boy's changes - type 1 diabetes.
Now Nikita is forever associated with this disease.

The request from the boy's mother for help, which we distributed in the Romny community, found a response in the hearts of fellow countrymen. In seven days, we collected 60 thousand hryvnias. Radio Romny and the Romny Info Facebook group helped spread the request, for which we are very grateful. The Victoria farm, which has repeatedly helped children with diabetes, joined the collection again. Thanks to caring people, Nikita received sensors for 16 months of use. This is 16 months without daily finger pricks and peace for the child and his mother.

Let's hope that from now on diabetes will not be able to harm Nikita's health. And we will continue to support him to the best of our ability. Grow up, boy, and be healthy! Everything will be as it should be for you!

Let's not forget other children who are also waiting for help. Read the story of 6-year-old Nastya from Vinnitsa and join in the good deeds - https://ucccf-help.org.ua/ua/podderzhivaemye-missiej-deti/grichko-anastasiya-6-let-g-vinnitsa/
