About the campaign

Mothers of seriously ill children need psychological help

All mothers dream of a healthy child. None of the mothers is ready for the fact that the child will be born with a serious illness.

"When I found out that my daughter would never go and speak, the world just turned gray, in which there were no colors of life, I did everything like an automaton, my husband did not accept his daughter and left. And then I was invited to the project and even offered to bring me to the center. Teachers began to work with Melanie, I was at that time in classes aimed at physical and emotional health. I really liked it! I was able to believe in myself, in my new business- growing flowers, I was able to hire a nanny, and there are changes in my personal life. Thanks a lot to the project - my world has been painted with all the colors of the rainbow!" - Nadezhda, the mother of 10-year-old Melanie, told about the project.

75 mothers received the help of specialists: a social worker, a psychologist, an AFC coach. We attended 378 master classes, 480 sessions with a psychologist, 700 individual consultations, 102 AFC classes.

Now there are 17 mothers in the project group, and three educators are working with 12 seriously ill children at this time, there are driver services.
