Thanks to the responsiveness of 28 thousand investors, we will be able to support the implementation of advanced methods of treating children. The financial market once again demonstrated that it can not only develop the financial infrastructure and ensure the functioning of the Russian economy, but also contribute to solving significant social tasks.”
Ekaterina Shergova, director of the “Gift of Life” foundation:
“We are very grateful to the Moscow Exchange for this initiative and for the fact that for the second year in a row the company supports our wards in such an unusual and effective way. It is especially valuable that the collected funds will be directed towards the development of scientific projects and modern treatment technologies. Thanks to this support, specialists of the Dmitry Rogachev Center will be able to continue working on the immunotherapy project using NK cells — one of the promising directions in the treatment of severe diseases.”For us, this is not only help for children undergoing treatment today, but also an investment in the development of medicine that will be able to help even more patients in the future.
