Children in need of assistance now
Help Journal
 

Saving and improving young lives, with your help!

Our mission is to ensure access to high quality medical care for children and young adults suffering from cancer, cystic fibrosis, and other serious and life-threatening illnesses in Russia, Ukraine and other countries of the former Soviet Union. We do this by providing the financial support to the families of the young patients who would otherwise not be able to afford necessary medications, diagnostic and treatment procedures. We also strive to raise public awareness of the problems these seriosly ill children and adults face daily.

Help Journal is registered in the US as a non-profit 501(c) organization. It's run by volunteers and 100% of money raised goes to help our patients. All donations are tax deductible for the US tax payers.

Thank you for your support!
