Valentine's Day is coming up this week! We would like to take this opportunity to tell our supporters how special they are to us. And we hope the feeling is mutual!
Today you can increase your impact by 30% by donating early and getting a bonus match from Global Giving. The bonus day starts at 9 am ET (or 18:00 Moscow time), and lasts until midnight (or 9 am Moscow time on February 13th), or until the bonus funds run out. Any donation of $1,000 or less will receive 30% match.
The money raised will go to some of the neediest leukemia patients in St. Petersburg who are awaiting transplants from unrelated donors. Currently, six of them have not paid the first installment to the donor registry - which means the search was not started. Since there is usually a very short window in which patients should be transplanted, it is very important to start the donor search as soon as possible.
You can see complete list of patients and read their stories here: http://advita.ru/en/
Thanks for your support and feel free to share this report with your friends. We can always use more volunteer help!
