Some things are enjoyed in moderation. But when it comes to helping patients with cancer, more money translates into better care and better outcomes. And we know of a perfect opportunity to stretch your generous donation to even more impressive size. Join us during Bonus Day on Wednesday, July 16th and see your donation grow 50% more!
Just once a year Global Giving rewards its "Superstar" projects with an opportunity to earn 50% bonus on all donations that are $1000 or less. The timing is great, as summer is a traditionally slow season for fundraising, while the patients still need our help just as much as in any other season. Right now, 50 patients awaiting bone marrow transplants in St. Petersburg cannot pay their bill for bone marrow donor search. It means that a life-saving transplant could be postponed for some of them and the success of the procedure jeopardized.
Thanks to you support, this year we already helped seven low-income patients with the costs of bone marrow donor searches. And we would love to do more, but we need your help. Russian healthcare does not cover the cost of donor searches outside of Russia, and it's up to us, private donors, to ensure that patients get a chance to live. The Bonus day starts at 9 am EDT (17:00 Moscow time) on Wednesday, July 16th. The bonus funds usually run out quickly, so donate early and let your friends know of this opportunity. Thank you for your support!
