Donation Line for the Transportation of Children at a Disadvantage -_in the months of July and August.
The Together For Our Health Association was established in 2003 to support
children's hospitals, institutions with the donation of equipment that are
essential to treat children and that could not or hardly be purchased by the
institutions due to their limited financial resources.
The Association
intends to use the support received through the donation line towards purchasing
a special patient-carrier vehicle for the Samaritanus Ambulance Service that
could help to transport disabled children from the countryside to their
(boarding) schools in Budapest. With the help of the new vehicle all equipment
and possibilities will be available for the Samaritanus Ambulance Service to
comfortably and safely transport disabled children to any part of the country.
The Association is in a close cooperation with numerous healthcare
institutions, including the Karolina Hospital in Mosonmagyaróvár, the Regional
Burns Treatment Center in Miskolc, the Infectology Department of the Semmelweis
Ignác Healthcare Center in Miskolc or the Children's Clinic in Szeged. These
institutions are supported with the procurement of medical equipment. In the
near future a special laryngoscope will start to operate in Miskolc, in the
Semmelweis Ignác Center, that was purchased abroad with the help of the
Association. The non-profit organization gives special help to the SOTE I.
Children's Clinic in Budapest - recently they helped to purchase a children's
healthcare monitoring system.
The Association also helps the daycare center,
the school and the elderly residents of a small village in Heves county, in
Tarnaörs, not only financially but also with other, in-kind
contributions.
The Donation Line, also known from the slogan "1788 -
the people's number" is equally accessible from Magyar Telekom's wire line and
mobile phone network. The fee both for the call and the SMS is HUF 100, which is
free of VAT (with the exception of calls initiated from Domino top-up cards).
The total amount of the calls received in the months of July and August, 2011
will be granted as the callers' donation to the Together For Our Health
Association that will use this amount to purchase a special patient-carrier
vehicle for the Samaritanus Ambulance Service.
