Charity & Yoga ediția IV la Muzeu
20 participanti au vâslit 23 km pe Nistru pentru caritate
Un proiect nou caritabil a avut loc pe 19 august 2022, prin care 20 participanți au mers pe Stand Up Paddle și caiac-uri in favoarea pacienților cu prognostic limitat de viata.
Evenimentul a fost organizat in co-parteneriat cu SUP Moldova cu scopul de a colecta fonduri pentru dezvoltarea serviciilor de îngrijire paliativa, in parteneriat cu Ambasada Ucrainei la Chisinau, Federația de caiac-canoe a Republicii Moldova dar si alți parteneri si susținători cu donații in-kind.
“După o perioada dificila am reușit sa dezvoltam serviciile de îngrijire paliativa in Republica Moldova și ne îndreptam cu pași mari spre rezultate înalte. Suntem recunoscători tuturor partenerilor și participanților acestui turneu pentru dedicația și timpul acordat, împreuna vom reuși sa oferim gratuit serviciile paliative din Orhei, Ocnita, Taraclia si Soroca” a expus Lara Moraru, country manager Hospices of Hope Moldova.
SUP Moldova si-a deschis ușile in 2018 si a găzduit sute de oameni care au învățat sa meargă pe SUP. Vice-campionul al Stand Up Paddle in Republica Moldova, Sergiu Iliescu si promotorul sportului pe apa in Moldova a venit cu idea organizării acestei curse caritabile: “Câțiva ani in urma a venit idea de a face un turneu caritabil și iată ca realizam acest scop prin organizare și oferire echipament și logistica in traseu”.
Five steps to the door
Meet Mrs Maria from Orhei. She is over 70 years old, visually impaired, and lives with an autoimmune disease discovered following joint replacement surgery. She moves with great difficulty and rarely steps away from the bed where she spends most of her days. Due to advanced arthritis, she cannot even hold a cup on her own.
Mrs Maria receives the professional home-based medical care she urgently needs. Beyond medical assistance, each visit from the team also brings communication, encouragement, and emotional support.
Sometimes, a small gesture makes a huge difference. During a recent visit, the administrative team from Chișinău brought Mrs Maria a simple yet invaluable gift — a cup with a straw.
Recently, we witnessed remarkable progress: Mrs Maria managed, on her own, to walk from her bed to the door of her room. What strength and effort this required!
This achievement is due in large part to the dedication of the multidisciplinary team from Orhei, part of the National Palliative Care Network of Hospices of Hope Moldova.
