Public Speaking and Diction Training with Veronica Coberman
On Saturday, December 7, we warmly invite you to an unique event, led by Veronica Coberman, a diction and public speaking coach, dedicated to the art of communication, under the theme „Your voice is the image of your personality.”
Are you afraid of public speaking? Do emotions overwhelm you when you step on stage? Do filler words distract you and make you lose your ideas? During the event, we will learn together how to control all these aspects and express ourselves authentically, both online and offline.

The Country Manager of Hospices of Hope Moldova Attended the First Meeting of the Hospices of Hope Network in the UK, Gathering 6 Leaders from Southeast Europe
The purpose of this meeting was to review progress in palliative care over the last three years, including developments in Moldova. The leaders discussed each country’s challenges and set objectives for the next three years, focusing on increasing patient access to free palliative care services for adults and children.

We also expressed sincere thanks to Hospices of Hope UK and its British supporters for their ongoing support in developing palliative care services in Moldova—a relatively new concept in our society, but a fundamental human right for a dignified and pain-free life.
It was emphasized that approximately 30,000 people in Moldova need palliative care each year, but only 5,000 receive assistance, many of whom live in hard-to-reach rural areas. Therefore, there is an urgent need to expand access to these vital services for patients with terminal diagnoses, who often face unbearable pain and isolation.
We are grateful to everyone who supports Hospices of Hope UK and Hospices of Hope Moldova. Thanks to your continuous support, our medical teams can offer free palliative care, which plays a crucial role in the lives of our beneficiaries and their families by providing them hope for a dignified and pain-free life.

#HopeInMotion: 100 people ran at the Chișinău Marathon to support children and adults with serious incurable illnesses
On September 29, our capital hosted the country’s largest running event, the Chișinău Marathon. Traditionally, Hospices of Hope Moldova, which offers free palliative care services, participates in this initiative, forming the #HopeInMotion team. The team’s participants run to support people who need help in their fight against incurable illness.
100 people, including representatives from local and international companies, diplomats, business people, activists, and professional athletes.
Each member set out to complete a distance of 5, 10, 21, or 42 km and contributed a participation donation to support the development of free palliative care services in Moldova for patients suffering from incurable diseases. These services include assistance from doctors, psychologists, physical therapists, nurses, and social workers, providing those in need with care, empathy, and support to maintain dignity in the face of the challenges caused by unfortunate diagnoses.
Year after year, the #HopeInMotion team grows stronger, gathering compassionate people determined to make a real difference in the lives of those with serious incurable diseases like cancer. Together, we ran not just for performance but to bring hope to those who need it most. We are grateful to everyone who chose to support us in this noble cause. For the beneficiaries of Hospices of Hope Moldova, every day is a struggle, and every moment of comfort and support counts immensely. We are thankful that we can be even closer to the patients who need our help. They are not alone in this fight and can rely on the free assistance we offer. Whether it’s medical, social, or psychological help, our multidisciplinary team is dedicated to providing maximum support to ensure our beneficiaries live pain-free until the end,” stated Veronica Dragnev-Sacara, Country Manager of Hospices of Hope Moldova.
Hospice of Hope Moldova would like to extend sincere thanks to the supporters and the team involved in this event. Each contribution is invaluable. Together, we give hope!
