The CCF was established in November, 2005 to deliver social and
charity
projects within the frameworks of FC
URALSIB corporate social policy. The CCF activities focus on kids
care; as a result, a series of projects for children living in
orphanages and Samaritan homes has been launched in the past three
years. The CCF closely works with the regional authorities; the
staff of the Moscow head office and regional branches actively
volunteer and share one mission to support many children in Russia
in difficult life circumstances.
Corporate Charity Foundation Projects
November, 2005. CCF organized medical help for children
in Iksha, Mozhaysky Rehab Center and Orphanage
On Mothers Day, 25 November, the Corporate Charity Foundation
(CCF) and a group of doctors headed by Leonid Roshal, one of
Russia's most distinguished paediatricians, visited the Mozhaysky
Orphanage (Moscow region). There are 21 children in the Home and
Dr. Roshal and his colleagues carried out preventative medical
examinations on children who do not receive professional medical
care due to the absence of proper registration or medical
insurance. In return, the children arranged a special concert for
the guests. The CCF also provided aid for women leaving the
rehabilitation facilities. The next day, FC URALSIB was awarded the
Golden Diploma from the National Congress "Mothers of the Russian
Federation” held at the President-Hotel, Moscow.
