Seniors are the most vulnerable group in Latvia: more than 50% are at risk of poverty. Many of them put off taking care of their health for a long time. Queues to see a public doctor can take a few months, and they cannot afford to pay a visit to a private specialist.
Every year, in cooperation with our partners, the Social Center purchases health insurance for more than 450 clients. Thanks to this, our clients can afford to go to the right specialist when they need it. In addition, we avoid putting a strain on their modest budget by paying for hospital stays.
Today, we invite you to become our partner. With your help, we will be able to purchase health insurance for our clients. We are raising funds so that we can bring joy to our clients together with you in the run-up to Hanukkah. And this year we will be saying, "A great miracle happened here!"
The cost of one year's health insurance is 238 euros. This year we can see that the number of people in need of this basic care has increased. With your help, we want to support more than 500 wards by providing them with support to purchase health insurance. In order to do this we need to raise the missing sum of 5,300 euros.
Thousands of candles can be lit from a single candle, and life does not get any shorter. Happiness doesn't get any smaller when you share it. It's not the amount you donate that counts, but your willingness to join the project! There is no such thing as a small donation - every euro helps us reach our goal. You can donate by payment card or via bank transfer.
