The project is attempting to establish a system for monitoring the early and late consequences of the treatment of cancer in predominately children and the prevention of new malignant diseases in children and young people who were treated for malignant diseases in childhood. Your Gift for Living Project donated 1000 euros towards this project and the intention is to approach LCIF to become part of a bigger project.
An evening of celebration was hosted by The Lions Club Sarajevo Centar and whilst attending the event we were introduced to an organisation that is providing networking and individual support to those that have survived cancer. It is hoped that we will be able to help this to grow internationally. About 51,955 KM (approx. 26,000 euros) was collected through donations, tickets and the auction on the night. The project will need approx. 100,000 euros to implement.
The collected funds will be directed to the initial steps of the implementation of the above mentioned project, which includes the establishment of co-operation with the University Clinical Centre of Ljubljana, Slovenia and the training of the professional staff of the Clinical Centre of the University of Sarajevo under their supervision.
