I want life
The campaign "I want life!" is a story which started with Ana's letter in which she said that all of her wishes fit into three little words.
Ana Rukavina Public Cord Blood Bank
The establishment of the public bank is the result of great effort and investment made by the Ana Rukavina Foundation. This was done in order to realise Ana’s great wish and mission – to minimize the number of little bald heads, that is, to increase the chances of those who are being treated for haematological diseases.
Professional training
The public tender for education and professional training for young doctors residents or specialists of internal hematology and other related specializations in the most prestigious hospitals worldwide.
Professional Training
Vibor Milunović, M.D.
Public tenders for international training are a commendable activity of the Ana Rukavina Foundation because there is no systematic training within the healthcare system for young hematologists. By providing funding, the Foundation provides a continuing opportunity for young physicians to educate abroad, thereby opening unprecedented opportunities for physicians to advance professionally.
Vibor Milunović, M.D.
Ana Zelić Kerep, M.D.
Going to the US was a dream come true thanks to the support of the Ana Rukavina Foundation. The foundation recognized the importance of investing in young doctors and I was one of the lucky ones to get the opportunity.
Ana Zelić Kerep, M.D.
Nevenka Cigrovski, M.D.
The funds allocated by the Ana Rukavina Foundation for professional training abroad are a true investment in the future of Croatian healthcare. These educations are an excellent opportunity for young doctors, but also a great contribution to the future of the entire Croatian healthcare system.
Nevenka Cigrovski, M.D.
Zinaida Perić, M.D., PhD
Professional training is an absolute necessity and even more of a necessity in an area such as hematology, especially in methods that are developing as rapidly as bone marrow transplantation. There was no similar organization in Croatia before, and the Ana Rukavina Foundation provided young hematologists with a unique opportunity to gain new knowledge, thus improving care for hematology patients.

The Foundation's public tenders make a major contribution to the personal professional development of the grantees, the environment in which they work and the well-being of the patients they treat - thus a contribution of great importance to the environment in which we live.
