Mission and programs · 2022

• BRAVE LITTLE WARRIORS - THIS PROGRAM IS A VITAL INITIATIVE THAT AIMS TO ENSURE THAT CHILDREN IN NEED HAVE ACCESS TO THE MEDICAL CARE THEY DESERVE. THE PROGRAM IS DESIGNED TO ASSIST CHILDREN SUFFERING FROM SERIOUS OR CHRONIC DISEASES WHOSE FAMILIES, DUE TO ECONOMIC DIFFICULTIES, ARE UNABLE TO COVER THE COSTS OF HEALTH TREATMENTS. THIS CAN INCLUDE EVERYTHING FROM DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES AND LABORATORY TESTS, TO SURGERIES, MEDICATIONS AND POST-OPERATIVE CARE. WE WORK CLOSELY WITH FONDACIONI FIRDEUS, MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS, AND HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS TO IDENTIFY AND ASSESS THE NEEDS OF PATIENTS WHO ARE IN NEED OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. ONCE A PATIENT HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED AND THEIR CASE HAS BEEN EVALUATED, WE PROVIDE FINANCIAL AID TO COVER THE COSTS OF THEIR TREATMENT. IN SOME CASES, PATIENTS MAY REQUIRE SPECIALIZED CARE THAT IS NOT AVAILABLE IN THEIR HOME COUNTRY. IN SUCH INSTANCES, WE WORK TO ARRANGE FOR PATIENTS TO RECEIVE TREATMENT AT HOSPITALS IN EUROPE. THIS MAY INVOLVE COORDINATING TRAVEL AND ACCOMODATION FOR PATIENTS AND THEIR FAMILIES, AS WELL AS ARRANGING FOR MEDICAL CONSULTATIONS AND TREATMENTS. OVERALL, THE GOAL OF OUR BRAVE LITTLE WARRIORS PROGRAM IS TO ENSURE THAT CHILDREN HAVE ACCESS TO THE MEDICAL CARE THEY NEED, REGARDLESS OF THEIR FINANCIAL SITUATION, AND TO PROVIDE THEM WITH THE BEST POSSIBLE CHANCE FOR RECOVERY AND A BETTER QUALITY OF LIFE.
