We help
Our assistance is always directed to specific children and young people. We ensure that we provide material support for the needs of sick children in the most efficient and economical way possible, especially for items that are beyond their financial means. At the same time, these are not fully covered, or are only partially covered, by health insurance.
We also provide financial assistance to cover non-material needs of our “little stars,” for which they lack sufficient resources.
