Katya will soon turn three. She suffers from a severe genetic disorder—spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) type 1. She can only eat via a gastrostomy tube and requires a ventilator to breathe; consequently, she must remain in the hospital full-time. A caregiver Angelika provided by the foundation looks after her, playing with her, offering emotional support, and assisting with all her medical procedures.
Orphaned children undergoing medical treatment are in particular need of care and attention. In a hospital setting, they often have no one else to support them or help with essential care tasks—they have no loved ones to visit them. This is where the foundation’s caregivers step in to help.
We are launching a fundraising campaign to ensure that Angelika can continue providing care to orphaned children in the hospital for another three months. Please contribute to help these children—who have no parents—receive the warmth and care they deserve!
