Fundraising for the treatment of a child is a tremendous work that requires not only large-scale coverage of a wealthy audience, but also time, which is always very short. The life of the baby is practically no longer dependent on parents, and they are forced to ask and pray for the help of others. Who is competent in these matters - the state, charitable foundations or other persons? Of course, it is not possible to give everyone quotas for free surgeries, since private centers and clinics, even local ones, not foreign ones, are powerless in some areas of medicine.
What needs to be presented from documents?
Before you start the official training camp, you need to convince all people that the money will really go to the needs of the child. Such is the reality, and there is no escape from the bureaucracy. Indeed, cases were often made public where parents continued to raise money for dead children or collected large sums that were not required in that amount for operations, treatment or rehabilitation. Therefore, fundraising for the treatment of a child is always fraught with mistrust. To complete the picture, many charitable foundations require confirmations and photocopies of doctors' opinions.
How to be in such a situation, where to start the training camp? First, you need to make an appeal to the media - this is the only option that will help to "dissolve" the news about the help. Otherwise, word of mouth may not work so quickly. Before drawing up the appeal, it is necessary to collect documents that could indicate the reliability of the diagnosis. It is not necessary to personally bring people to doctors and the child to the hospital. It’s enough to have with you:
- Inquiries and conclusions of doctors about the need for immediate hospitalization.
- Extracts from the sick leave about the diagnosis.
- Expert opinion, which will indicate the measures of influence by organ transplantation, surgery, etc.
Often in clinics and government centers issue a document that describes the stages of treatment, the required amount to pay for procedures and the period for rehabilitation. But where to get the money to treat a disabled child or a baby dying of a malignant tumor? Very often, many parents are forced to turn to foreign centers where narrow-profile medical specialists understand specific issues. Fees are usually held on the territory of the country in which the child lives, even if he is outside it already at the initial stage of treatment.
Depending on which fund the parent will apply to, their lists of required documents are presented. The competence of authorized persons has access to databases where you can verify the authenticity of documents. Therefore, they trust more such organizations, rather than ads on the Internet and popular social networks. Although there is also a large audience reach, it is faster and easier to convey a thought and a plea for help.
Where to get official documents?
Knowing roughly where to get the money for cancer treatment for an adult or a child, it’s worth starting the collection of documentation. It must be provided in multiple copies. It is necessary to take the package of documents to each institution personally, where it is planned to raise funds for the treatment of a child or adult. If this is not possible, you must use the function of notarial departure of a legal entity. He will certify all documents and copies for mailing. The registered letter function will help to do this quickly. It is also convenient and reliable - the receiving party, as a legal entity, will confirm the fact of acceptance and receipt of the notice. And then it remains only to hope for help.
To organize a fundraiser for the treatment of a child, you need:
- Provide birth certificates for all family members, passports to confirm family ties.
- Attach copies or originals (if possible) of the doctor’s opinion. They are issued at a medical facility. The main thing is to have the seal and signature of the doctor.
- The employment center should take a certificate of the availability of an official place of work. This will confirm the fact that it is impossible to provide financial assistance to the patient.
- If funds are being collected for cancer treatment, then copies of all documents must be attached, where the results of the tests will be indicated - a biopsy, blood sampling, results data with confirmation of oncology.
- If punctures were performed, this should also be documented.
- At the beginning of treatment in the country of residence, in the Russian Federation, it is necessary to confirm the cost of funds for procedures that have already been completed.
- If there is an extended invoice for an operation abroad, the host country must issue a document on the need for treatment, indicating a list of all procedures for the person and the cost of each of them.
Also indicate the time of the scheduled operation. This happens by agreement of the parties on the basis of a contract for the provision of medical services. You can try to get a quota in Russia, but do an operation abroad, for example, in Israel. Very often, parents do not know that simple operations are carried out as part of a state program and are completely free. Mistakenly, they send a child abroad, which is not always convenient and cheap, since fundraising for cancer treatment can be carried out domestically, while providing a report to those bodies that helped in the struggle for life.
How are you collecting money yourself?
To organize an independent collection of money, it is also necessary to prepare documents. Suddenly, they will be asked by the internal authorities to check for fraud. And people will be inclined to trust those letters to which the corresponding documentation package is attached. For example, if you need to raise funds for the treatment of a child, an announcement is written about the child indicating his data. Parents must also submit a medical examination report to the bank to open a special account. It will allow you to receive money in cash or by transferring specifically for the needs of the baby. The accumulated amount is not withdrawn by the parents, is not handed out, but is transferred to the state account in the clinic where the treatment or operation will be performed.
Opening a special account
So, you need to organize fundraising for the treatment of the child. How to start and, most importantly, where? Self-opening a bank account will allow 99% to assure people of the veracity and regularity of the implementation of fees. It is enough to apply and get the account details. On this account, special “cells” are opened for replenishment in the currency of different states and national money. For example, in Russia, the National Bank does this, which independently opens and closes accounts, makes transfers of various amounts at a time when a sufficient proportion of funds is accumulated for initial treatment. Further accumulation continues, and parents can draw up their contributions by listing them from salaries.
The bank provides extracts on opening accounts, as this is also necessary for checking whether the account was previously used for other purposes and needs or not. Then you can submit announcements for the announcement of the gathering, post information on the Internet, do self-promotion, if this is appropriate to say.
The first steps
How to start raising funds for the treatment of a child through charitable foundations? Charity is fraud in 90% of cases, and few people believe in it. However, now people have taken such moves as:
- Conclusion of contracts with branches of telecommunications and communications - a person sends an SMS, and the amount of the cost of the message goes to the child’s bank account.
- Conclude contracts with local firms that may notify employees of fundraising. More often this is done by advertising companies that also get their own benefit: reputation and recognition.
- Companies such as Mc`Donalds. They always raise funds for the needs of children.
- Cosmetic companies like Mary Kay. Initially, it was created to help orphans and cancer patients. Pink is the company's patented color, which means good and help to homeless children and families in need.
There are many little-known firms that sometimes hold charity events and open door days. On holidays, special competitions are held in schools and universities in which children can participate, putting up their works for sale. The proceeds are transferred to the account of those in need. Separately existing charitable foundations are often associated with political parties. In the context of the election race, volunteers and volunteers can be involved to help organize such gatherings.
Submission of documents for online fees
When people do not know where to get money for the treatment of hepatitis C (or any other disease), you first need to resolve the issue of possible treatment at the first stage of the disease. You need to respond quickly and open bills and fees at the time of treatment. This also applies to other cases of disease. It is enough now to contact the official funds on the Internet, where parents will require the details, papers and documents confirming the disease. There are many such sites, although some work "for the percentage" that is required to maintain news in the feed. The results of successful operations are published there and not so when children again need adult support.
What you need to open a fundraiser for treating a child:
- Photos of all documents on treatment - prescribed and performed.
- Personal documents of those who apply for opening fees.
- Indication of the time when the amount is needed.
Only information and stories of parents about diseases and causes, if any, are put on display. The diagnosis and the amount for its successful elimination are indicated. All documents remain in the database of the organizers and administration of the sites, since disclosing them is a criminal offense. Of course, site owners are competent in this matter, they can distinguish fakes from these legal documents. If necessary, the numbers of reporting forms can be verified with those issued in hospitals and clinics. You can make requests to medical facilities.
Internet technologies also allow you to post links on social networks, but these are not independent ads from users, but officially verified data and reliable facts confirming the plea for help. Therefore, we can say that on the Internet, raising funds for the treatment of a child is a charity that pays off and shows its best. The decision is up to the people - to help or not. Of course, I want to believe that people trust such systems, but practice still shows poor statistics.
Fundraising for the treatment of a child on Channel One - fraud or truth?
Media such as Channel One also help children and adults who find themselves in a difficult situation. It would seem that this is the most famous and truthful channel on which there is no place for deception and speculation. And how are things in reality? As you know, channels for their own benefit collaborate with other social media, as it is important and necessary. Also, channels can receive income from advertising and the involvement of the viewer. But this is the “compensating" side of the material question. The main thing is that the broadcasts on the TV channel are actively broadcast and watched. Then the baby will be saved.
The channel we are interested in collaborates with Rusfond, which has announced constant fees for children who have turned to them for help. They offer a method of sending messages via telephony - the word "Welcome" is sent to 5541, the sending is confirmed, and money in the amount of 75 rubles is sent to the general fund. From there, money is distributed among children and adults who have turned to the company for help. You can do this by contacting the official website of Channel One.
As part of the launched program to help seriously ill children, there is an action from the musical show “Voice”, which also provides financial support to children. If it is necessary to organize fundraising for the treatment of a child on Channel One, viewers should participate in the voting of the show, which at the same time indicates their automatic participation in the financing of the charity fund.
Many programs that are broadcast on the First, try to implement their system of receiving money through a mobile operator. It is also legitimate to attract participants, viewers, so that they do not remain indifferent and at the same time watch TV shows. To some extent, “two birds with one stone are killed immediately, ” although you can’t do anything to save the lives of babies. It is convenient and reliable, the main thing is to confirm the sending, as stated even in official news releases on the same channel.
Fundraising for the treatment of a child on NTV. What is the channel’s number?
The NTV channel’s official website provides a list of requests from parents who publish their stories with problems and amounts for urgent treatment. Here you can see how the money is being raised for cancer treatment, hearing restoration and more. These are urgent and “waiting” situations, but they still exist.
As part of the site involved a program to raise money. Both need announcements and those describing successful operations are published. For example, where can I get money for treatment in Israel so that the amount is immediately redirected to the account of a private clinic? This can be written in a letter to the NTV website (it is not necessary to call). They will publish news about the collection of money in foreign currency, indicate the necessary details and terms.
In the same way, it is possible to organize fundraising for the treatment of a child in Volgograd or another city in Russia. It is important that when sending SMS messages, all the conditions for filling in the text columns and numbers must be met. Suppose to participate in the collection of funds for the treatment of a child on NTV, which number should be indicated? To do this, go to the page on the site where all situations and problems are published. Each story of the parents has a column indicating the bank account, as well as an individual number where the money is sent personally to the child. Please note that there may be an additional word that the children themselves came up with. In the absence of such, participating spectators themselves can come up with a "code word", just to not send an empty message.
Conditions for collecting money
In some cases, for organizations such as broadcast media, their own separate rules apply when submitting applications for consideration of a request to raise money. It is worth noting that the channels only provide information that is published according to the rules for disseminating information. To participate, you must contact the organization that discloses and transfers information about the child or adult. On Channel One it is Rusfond, and on the NTV channel there is the Charity fund. The company also has its own website, which duplicates information about children and illnesses. Contact for publication of the news you need there.
The editor-in-chief, Alexandra Kosterina, sorts requests and letters from viewers for text messages and reports. In some cases, the operator’s team has the right to independently leave the patient’s place of residence to record videos and conduct interviews. Within the framework of the law, this is not prohibited, on the contrary, it reveals the situation in detail from the inside. Since not all parents need help with treatment, some may seek non-urgent help with child support:
- Someone left without a breadwinner, there is nothing to feed the children.
- Others require moral support and volunteers to visit and deliver products.
- Others need financial and material assistance in the form of clothing or a shelter.
All this is done by channel employees. In order to prove the difficult situation in practice, they cannot help but show the “problem from the inside” if they do not come and record a few frames to represent the situation. The editor also calls for collaboration with orphanages, retirement homes, charitable private foundations, such as Nurses, to reach a large part of the audience that can help and publicize the problems of society.
