WHAT WE DO
We rebuild places. We repair systems.
No child should be left behind. That is why we work where care breaks down: between hospital and home, between paediatrics and adult medicine, between data and decisions.
And we want to be the bridge between people and the system that can help them.
Our story in 7 minutes
Dăruiește Aripi is a public-benefit non-profit organisation, founded in 2013 to ensure access to quality medical care for children with cancer in Romania.
Our mission is to help raise survival rates and quality of life for children with cancer in Romania.
We are strategic partners of the Romanian Society of Paediatric Onco-Haematology, members of the St. Jude Global Alliance in the United States and members of Childhood Cancer International, with whom we develop initiatives whose ultimate aim is to bring childhood and a sense of normal life back to young patients and their families.
By 2026 we have delivered over 54 projects worth 8 million euros, funded entirely by donations. We have also stepped in during crises, such as the COVID-19 pandemic and the war in Ukraine.
