https://cota.org/campaigns/COTAforAxelwithLove Please help my nephew with anything you can. His story told by his mother below: Axel started off like any other child. He was happy, healthy, strong, and mischievous. He loved chasing his older brothers and sneaking treats to the family dog. Shortly after his first birthday he started getting sick. There was no rhyme or reason for it. He got sick back-to-back and began to struggle. When cancer was the leading prognosis, his doctors pushed for Axel to get more lab work ASAP. That push led him to the emergency room, which saved his life. It was ultimately discovered that he did not have cancer but instead was in full heart failure. After every level of testing, the cause is still unknown. He was fading fast and his best hope was being transported to Stanford Children’s Hospital. Axel held on long enough to be placed from the gurney to his hospital bed where his vitals plummeted. Emergency procedures were used to save his life that night. His parents could only watch in horror as the medical teams tried their best. His parents remember optimistically, yet naively, asking, “there’s still a chance his heart will just heal itself, right?” There was a pause and a very soft, but firm response. “Axel is critically ill. A part of his heart has died. He needs a transplant. Axel needs a new heart.” Since then, teams of doctors and machines have been used to keep him going. Axel is recovering on a Ventricular Assist Device (VAD). He is hooked up to machines that keep him alive and he cannot leave the hospital until after transplant. Axel's parents take turns being with him at the hospital and being home with his brothers. The need to be present with Axel has caused the family to be reduced to one income. For Axel and his family, this is a difficult marathon. With medical bills and expenses beginning to pile on, the family is seeking help from COTA to keep their family strong and help relieve some of the financial stress as they move through this journey together. The Children's Organ Transplant Association (COTA) helps children and young adults who need a life-saving transplant by providing fundraising assistance and family support. COTA is the nation’s only fundraising organization solely dedicated to raising life-saving dollars in honor of transplant-needy children and young adults. 100% of each contribution made to COTA in honor of our patients helps meet transplant-related expenses. COTA’s services are free to our families, and gifts to COTA are tax deductible to the fullest extent of the law.

Decades of corruption, armed conflict, and lack of investment, combined with the effects of natural disasters and recurrent outbreaks of cholera, measles, and Ebola, have left millions of people in extreme poverty. The country has been in a humanitarian crisis for decades, and the situation is only expected to worsen. We have created this fund to alleviate the suffering of children in the Democratic Republic of Congo. There are approximately 5,000,000 orphans there, and massive need throughout the country. In a nation with a history of post-colonial civil war and a lack of potential for young people, there is an opportunity to help raise solid and educated children who will transform the DRC for the better. This project will accommodate many vulnerable children to offer them well-being and enable them to secure their future and become autonomous.

Since 2013 Foundation "For Change" annually organizes summer camps for kids in risk - kids who were abused, orphans, kids who live in poverty. In those summer camps we show the kids that there are other ways of communication, values in life. We encourage them to dream and be ready to make efforts for those dreams to come true. We show them love and correction, help them build skills they will need in their lives through games, activities and conversations. We believe that it is possible for them to have a good life and future and that their choices do matter. We do all of this with a team of great volunteers. One of those volunteers is the family of Ivo Rahov who is regularly part of those summer camps. But it is not only Ivo Rahov’s family that supports those children - it is all of you, who for the past several years are participating in preparing the Christmas gifts for those kids. It is exactly the Summer Camps which allow us to build strong relationships with those children which we can then extend with all the other smaller in size campaigns for them. Here are short videos from the last summer camps: https://www.youtube.com/@forchangebg5208. This year the summer camp is planned to reach 20 kids in the period 1-6 September 2023.

The Democratic Republic of the Congo, where the world’s largest known reservoirs of this metal are found, provides a substantial amount of the cobalt the world needs to meet its growing demand. Cobalt is a critical component in rechargeable car batteries and is indispensable for the transition from fossil fuels to sustainable energy sources. Despite the Commission's zero‑tolerance approach to child labor in trade agreements, it is estimated, according to reports by UN agencies, that in the southern Katanga province, more than 40 000 children are working in hazardous conditions in cobalt mines, with inadequate safety equipment and for very little money. It is estimated that 20% of the mines in the DRC are small-scale and use mostly child workers. These children, aged between 3 and 17, have to work in appalling and dangerous conditions, usually barefoot. According to the International Labour Organisation “child labour unifies all the activities which deprive children of their childhood, potential and dignity, along with harming their schooling and physical and mental development. We have created this fund to increase the effectiveness and protection of economic, social and cultural rights of local communities and traditional miners in relation to the exploitation of mineral resources, in the DRC. This will be achieved through a legal reform, the popularization of legal texts, awareness raising of local community leaders, of the judiciary and mine administration officials on their rights and obligations; in support of mining diggers rights and the monitoring of human rights related to the exploitation of natural resources.
