About the campaign

Tagir and other beneficiaries of the Foundation need crucial genetic testing

When Tagir was two years old, he stopped walking due to severe joint inflammation. The diagnosis of "juvenile arthritis" was not the final answer, but merely one piece of the puzzle. Doctors believe the root of the problem lies in a genetic malfunction of the immune system. To find the cause and select the right therapy, a complex and expensive analysis is needed — whole exome sequencing. It's like a detailed instruction manual for the body: it will show if the boy has inborn errors of immunity and how the treatment can be adjusted.

Tagir dreams of having a dog. But to walk a pet, he needs strength — to hold the leash firmly and not feel pain with every step. The genetic analysis is a chance to give him this opportunity.

We are raising funds for the testing for Tagir and other beneficiaries suspected of having inborn errors of immunity. Your help will give them a chance for an accurate diagnosis and a life without constant pain.
