Charitable foundation • Moscow

Dasha Ivanova, a young girl from a large family from St. Petersburg, needed help because of the diagnosed Shereshevsky-Turner syndrome, which causes infertility due to the loss of the second X chromosome.

Dasha had the only opportunity to become a mother someday, which consisted in the partial removal of one of the ovaries, followed by the freezing of a healthy ovum.

Thanks to the support of the foundation, which raised funds for supplies and the first year of storage of reproductive cells, Dasha got a chance at motherhood!

Let's help Dasha maintain the possibility of motherhood

Dasha is the second child in a large family from St. Petersburg. Until the ninth grade, she seemed like an ordinary healthy teenager – she grew up, studied at school, dreamed of connecting her life with sports, but at the school medical examination, the gynecologist suspected something was wrong and sent Dasha to an endocrinologist, who, in turn, to a geneticist.

There the girl was diagnosed with the Shereshevsky-Turner syndrome. This is a genomic disease in which girls lose the second X chromosome or part of it, resulting in rapid infertility. The only way for Dasha to become a mother someday is to remove her ovaries and then freeze healthy eggs.

Doctors are ready to operate on Dasha according to the CHI in a month. You only need to pay for supplies and the first year of storage of reproductive cells.

The Ivanov family has four children, two of them have disabilities. Dasha's mother brings them up alone, so she does not have the opportunity to pay for the operation.

We ask you to help this young girl! She is only 16 years old now. At this age, children are not thought about, but if the operation is not performed immediately, Dasha will face serious obstacles on the way to motherhood in the future.
