LET'S GIVE DANIELA A BREATH OF HOPE

The Our Lungs Foundation has helped eighteen-year-old Daniela, who was born with a rare genetic disorder. The disease was not diagnosed until she was eleven years old. Thanks to the sixth fundraising campaign, enough money was raised to purchase a special device called Simeox, which will help this young woman breathe more easily and manage her everyday life with a lung disease. The ambassador of the campaign was Czech singer and songwriter Tomáš Klus, who personally presented the special breathing-assistance device to Daniela. 💙

WHO WE ARE

Our main activities

Early diagnosis

With your support, we will ensure that one day everyone can breathe with healthy lungs. Our goal is to prevent lung diseases through early diagnosis.

Innovative approach

We support Czech doctors and hospitals. We want testing with the latest technologies to become a standard available to everyone.

Prevention

We raise awareness of lung diseases and the dangers that cause them. A key part of prevention is education on how to take care of one's lungs.

Financial support

The projects we fund have a clear goal and provide specific help to people living with lung disease in the short, medium and long term.

This is our story

The founders of the "Our Lungs" endowment fund are the team of the Y&T Luxury Property real estate agency. Women who do business in everyday life and have now decided to support the Czech healthcare system, too. "Our lungs", established during the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic, will focus on supporting the treatment of respiratory diseases in adults and children.

"As a donor, we have supported various charity projects in the past," says Elena Jakubovič, the founder of the real estate agency. "This time we would like to give it not only a different legal form, but also a whole new dimension - to help Czech experts and hospitals in the long term."
