A record 290,993 people from 178 countries visited PavelAndreev.ORG in July.
335 new campaigns sought a chance to receive support.
609 causes were active at the beginning of August.
Behind every one of these figures is a person fighting for their life, their education, or the future of their family.
In July, we shared the good news about Yordan, Desi, Pastor Sergey, Magdalena, baby Dayana, Geri, and Ivona in the Successful Stories section of our Newsroom.
Yordan's story showed why timely help can sometimes be decisive. When an additional €35,000 was urgently needed for his transplant, the Fund for the Treatment of Children Abroad at PavelAndreev.ORG transferred €34,400 directly to the hospital.
Nearly 1,900 donors raised more than €57,000 for Desi. More than 9,300 people supported baby Dayana with over €254,000, while in just four days more than 4,000 donors raised €137,000 for the life-saving treatment of 16-year-old Ivona.
Pastor Sergey also received the support he needed to begin his treatment.
Good causes take many different forms. A total of 1,573 people helped Magdalena continue her education at Cambridge, while 111 donors provided the funds needed for nine-year-old mathematics talent Geri to represent Bulgaria at a competition in Tokyo.
These are only some of the successful stories that reached our team during the month. Continue following the Newsroom, where we share the real results made possible by donor solidarity.
In July, a significant number of people from North Macedonia turned to the platform and launched new campaigns. The platform welcomed dozens of new campaigns during the month, while trust in the community continued to grow.
The month brought wonderful news for Sanja. After ten years of living with severe venous insufficiency, chronic wounds, and constant pain, 326 donors raised €5,599.07. Her campaign gave her the opportunity to begin the treatment she needed.
Viktor Nikoloski's fight also continues. On July 16, a payment of €33,060 was approved and transferred directly to the medical institution for the surgery that had been performed. On July 27, Viktor travelled to Turkey again, where he began the next stage of his treatment, including chemotherapy and radiation therapy.
To date, his campaign has been supported by 6,925 donors, who have raised €139,686.05.
Among the new campaigns are those of Goran Eftimovski, who has been diagnosed with an aggressive liver carcinoma, and Risto Zhivkovikj, a teacher and father of three who needs surgery because of a brain tumour. Both campaigns remain active.
Following a severe brain injury, Uroš achieved progress that had long seemed impossible - he began speaking and moving his hands again.
The results show that the therapies are helping him. However, his family is financially exhausted and faces the risk that his treatment may be interrupted just as the first significant improvements are becoming visible.
In July, Uroš's story reached more people, while the PavelAndreev.ORG community in Serbia continued to grow both on the platform and across social media.
In the first 24 hours alone, the From the Heart for Nicoleta campaign from Moldova raised approximately €3,500. This amount allowed the family to travel to Turkey for the initial medical examinations.
Nicoleta is 13 years old and is fighting a malignant ovarian tumour.
To date, 313 donors have raised €10,122.92 of the required €17,350. The campaign remains active, and Nicoleta still needs support.
In July, we continued developing the presence of PavelAndreev.ORG among Russian-speaking communities and presenting active campaigns to people living in different countries.
Our work across Russian-language social media channels helps more verified stories receive the visibility they need and reach people who are able to help.
Building a community begins with trust, clear information, and the consistent work required to ensure that every story is told responsibly and reaches more people.
In July, we invited users to share their ideas and suggestions for improving the platform. Every practical proposal can help make donating and starting a campaign easier and more understandable.
We also highlighted the ways in which anyone can help, even when making a donation is not possible - by sharing a story, seeking support from their community, involving colleagues, or speaking with people who may be able to help.
Sometimes a single share or recommendation is enough for a campaign to reach the right person.
July once again showed that a story can begin in a small town and reach donors thousands of kilometres away.
The record number of 290,993 active users shows that the PavelAndreev.ORG community continues to grow.
The true value of this record, however, is not found in the numbers, but in the people who, thanks to this community, receive a timely chance for treatment, education, and a better future.
