Here are some stories of little winners. Arthur has fought cancer twice in his 11 years. The second time the disease was more aggressive, the kid had to have a bone marrow transplant.

Mykola is 7 years old, he is from the Rivne region and he has a serious blood disease. In 2020, the boy went to first grade. But two months later he was hospitalized, where he undergoes difficult treatment. According to Mykola's mother, the charitable help gave him a chance to successfully undergo treatment and return to school, where he almost did not have time to study yet.
The disease also returned to 8-year-old Kolya. To defeat it a second time, a bone marrow transplant was needed. It was performed at the end of January this year, and the boy was prepared for a complex procedure with special drugs purchased at the expense of the NGO Techiia Foundation.
"The success stories of these children inspire us to continue what Yura Lazebnikov and I have been doing for many years. We believe that with our contribution we will be able to help overcome childhood cancer in Ukraine. And in this battle, we need as many allies as possible. The easiest thing that every Ukrainian business can do is to make a contribution to Taabletochki and they will definitely use these funds to the maximum benefit,” says Oleg Krot, the Managing Partner of TECHIIA holding.
