LÖSEV

LÖSEV Health and Education Foundation for Children with Leukemia is a non-governmental (NGO) and a non-profit foundation that has been providing support for more than 70.000 children with leukemia and cancer, adult cancer patients, and their families since 1998. Education Centers for Children with Leukemia help children compensate for missing school terms due to the intensive treatment. LÖSEV School has opened its doors in 2008, where 200 students receive education under the curriculum of the Ministry of National Education. Accommodation and employment for families, who have to migrate to reach treatment facilities is a vital problem. LÖSEV has established a Village for Children with Leukemia to ease this pressure. LÖSEV gives priority to provide social and permanent services in all its activities; thus, has been carrying out Vocational Training Courses for leukemia and cancer survivors as well as the mothers of children with leukemia. Within this framework, as a non-profit NGO who provides all above-mentioned services totally free of charge to our children and families, we wish to broaden our reach, improve our cooperation with international organizations and NGOs and raise awareness about the increasing number of cancer cases and better ways to prevent cancer all around the world. LÖSEV is one the most trusted non-governmental organizations supplied with projects by the European Union and World bank, and our articles and posters that we have presented at congress and conferences stand out amongst the best. LÖSEV provides complementary treatment at LÖSANTE Children and Adult’s Hospital. Intensive treatment, accommodation, and meals are completely free of charge for the patients and the accompanying mother. LÖSEV Elementary School has opened in 2008, where 200 students receive education under the curriculum of the Ministry of National Education. Accommodation and employment for families, who have to migrate to reach treatment facilities is a vital problem. LÖSEV has established a Village for Children with Leukemia to ease this pressure. Our Foundation has the Special Advisory Status of the United Nations Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC).
