Podari Life was founded by a group of Russian enthusiasts with previous involvement in "Podari Zhizn" activities, who now all live in the US. “We couldn't stop thinking about what we could do to close the gap between quality of health care, treatment and rehabilitation in the USA and Russia”, said Lelia Shergova, the co-founder of Podari Life. “We are convinced that sharing American experience in containment and fighting childhood cancer can be an important step towards increasing the survival rates for childhood in Russia”
