This microproject is a call for help in an emergency. A few weeks ago during a strong snowstorm in Moscow our outreach minivan got into an accident, it has been severely damaged. We are trying to fundraise for its repair and, more importantly, to be able to afford the proper insurance. This van has served us for 5 years and has been key to expanding and improving our services. Please see additional documentation to this project for the full story!
Our outreach minivan has been in an accident in a winter storm and is undergoing a major repair. Due to lack of funds, we could not insure it properly, nor have we funds for the repair. We need our supporters help to compensate the repair works and to allow a new insurance.
The microproject will help to improve sustainability of our health and human rights outreach work by allowing to repair and ensure our minivan that we use for daily outreach to the outskirts of Moscow.
ARF believes that the society should be able to protect and support its most vulnerable members. If the government refuses to pay attention, the communities are there to provide support. ARF helps people who use drugs, sex workers and LGBT community to protect their health, well-being, dignity and human rights. We help to prevent HIV and hepatitis, avert overdose, get legal aid and mental health support. We give people hope and empower them to improve their lives and lives of our communities.
