As the primary beneficiary of the fundraising event, UNICEF will invest in two projects for furthering access to quality health care in the benefit of vulnerable children. On the one hand, a special home dialysis department will be created in Fundeni Hospital. Also, UNICEF will transform a maternity hospital into a Baby Friendly Hospital, as part of its national project of improving conditions in Romanian maternity wards. With the funds raised, UNICEF will be able to help children get a better start in life: children suffering from chronic renal diseases will benefit from top of the line dialysis machines that can provide treatment during the night, free of pain, in their own beds at home, and newborn babies will have better chances for a proper development in the maternity hospital by turning it to a “Baby Friendly Hospital”.
