LÖSEV is a non-profit NGO, mainly aiming to provide educational and emotional supports, financial assistance and health services for the children who have Leukemia or chronic blood disorders, to help them cope with their illness that threatens their life. Our other missions are to give education at international level about acquired and inherited blood diseases, to set up and operate research institutions.Every year in Turkey, we see 1000 - 1500 new cases diagnosed with Leukemia. This situation sometimes forces poor families to make a decision between their healthy child and the one with Leukemia, because of the unexpected financial burden. LÖSEV helps to shoulder this financial burden. However, it does not only aim to provide income for those little heroes, but also aims to reflect the problems of our children and their families to the society in order to make people aware of Leukemia.
