EMERGENCY MEDICAL FUND

Individuals in poverty need help to meet the cost of emergency medical bills.

Please consider giving so we are prepared for the future needs of families who cannot afford medical care.

Help us be ready

Women and children arrive at the Women's Crisis Centre with no money and health problems needing urgent attention. Most have travelled from other regions and cannot easily access local medical care. Treatment fees fall on the WCC's limited resources, and they need our help.

Families from our support group projects also face difficulties when needing additional treatments and medicines that are so costly they are out of reach on their extremely low incomes.

What your donations have done

Doroteya

Born with stage four cancer on the brain, Doroteya's mum, who was staying at the WCC, had no way of paying for her surgery and chemo. At one year old, Doroteya is now in remission.

Leosha

2-year-old Leosha was found to have a tumor on his kidney and needed an operation to remove it.

Konstantin

Before Konstantin's 1st birthday, it was discovered he'd been born with a serious heart condition that was affecting his development. We have helped where we can with the cost of appointments and treatment.

Dima

Born prematurely to mum Orina who had escaped a domestically violent marriage. With nothing, she ran to the Women's Crisis Centre for refuge. She faced hospital fees of £1,350 per month for Dima's care in the intensive care unit for the first few months of his life.

Vera

Vera, arrived at the WCC with eyesight problems exacerbated by 'lazy eye' syndrome. Her mother had no way to pay for Vera to be looked at so we were happy to help with appointment costs and a new pair of glasses.

Bogdan

Bogdan was diagnosed with retinoblastoma, a serious cancer of the eye. Compared to typical cases, Bogdan's tumor was large and he needed specialist treatment in Switzerland. This was the only option to save his eyesight and possibly his life. We ran a specific appeal for this in 2019.

Varia

Varia, mum of two, came to the crisis centre for help with drug addiction several years ago. Today she helps at the centre counseling other women in the same position she once was. She was extremely ill with liver cirrhosis.

Ruslan

An orphanage leaver Love Russia has known since visiting him on Summer Camps. He was diagnosed with Diabetes. Unstable employment and the constant cost of medication and regular tests were too much for him to bear alone.

Vanya

Vanya's mother is an orphan and could not afford the surgery he needed on his kidneys. The op was free but post-surgery treatment and medication was not. What she needed was more than she could raise alone.

Yeva

Mother of four-year-old Yeva is an orphan. When her daughter was diagnosed with stage three kidney cancer she could not meet the cost of her after-care alone. The surgery was free but the medicine and regular travel to Moscow. We were able to bless this family.
