Story
After several months of travel and before starting medical school, I will spend two weeks in Belarus volunteering at a camp for children with disabilities run by Chernobyl Children's Project, a UK charity.
I've spent time working with Chernobyl Children's Project in the past as a translator at the camp, helping with lectures on palliative care across the country, and doing research on hospices in Belarus. I have been impressed with what the organization does - helping children with diabetes, disabilities, and cancer, providing life-saving medications, supporting palliative care in Belarus, training healthcare workers, and running recuperative holidays for Belarusian kids to go abroad.
Now, I am looking to raise funding to help Chernobyl Children's project make a difference in the lives of more children in Belarus who are really in need of help. I would sincerely appreciate your donations and help!
For more information, please ask me or check out Chernobyl Children's Project website at: http://www.chernobyl-children.org.uk/

Oh, and a shout-out to JustGiving - the donation service is a reliable non-profit that I've used before and will not spam you or sell your contact information.
Thank you so very much!
