Chulpan Khamatova is an actress, co-founder of the Gift of Life foundation, mother of three daughters. The non-state charitable foundation of Chulpan Khamatova and Dina Korzun “Give Life” appeared in 2007. This is an association of people who, long before the foundation was created, helped children as volunteers cope with their serious illness. Back then, charity was not as widespread as it is now. Unfortunately, many people are accustomed to turning a blind eye to the misfortune of others. “Children are the flowers of life, and you can help them,” actresses Dina Korzun and Chulpan Khamatova firmly know.

Creation of the fund In 2005, actress Chulpan Khamatova, after talking with pediatric oncologists and hematologists in Moscow, saw the deplorable state of hospitals at that time. Doctors asked her to hold a charity concert, the proceeds of which were to be used for expensive medical equipment. Teaming up with Dina Korzun, Chulpan held two charity concerts. The second concert took place at the Sovremennik Theater, and invited famous musicians and artists were involved. This concert helped Chulpan Khamatova raise 300 thousand dollars for the treatment of sick children. IN next year Another charity concert was held, organized by Dina Korzun and Chulpan Khamatova. The Gift of Life Foundation was organized shortly thereafter. And now concerts called “Give Life” with the participation of a variety of talented pop stars are held in Moscow every year.

It is impossible not to change when faced with sick children and their problems every day. It becomes obvious what is truly important in life and what should not be paid attention to. "I am happy that I met unselfish, extraordinary kind people- volunteers,” admits Chulpan Khamatova.

The charitable foundation has existed for about ten years, and the patients themselves have maintained a warm atmosphere in it throughout this time. After all, even sick children, in fact, remain the same children! They play, draw, make some progress. When children recover, this also brings great joy. When you learn about the successes of your students, it can’t help but make you happy. Some recovered children, growing up, come to the hospital to work as volunteers, in turn, helping other children cope with the disease.

Why did you start doing charity work?
My whole history in charity began with a meeting with doctors. I saw extraordinary people, sensitive doctors with unpetrified hearts and realized that they needed help. If there are such fireflies on this planet who fight for the lives of children, then I have no right to leave them alone in this fight. I saw how volunteers work, these people with big, kind hearts. I was amazed by their dedication. And, of course, I met the children. It’s a special happiness for me to come to them, play, chat...
Our first event was the charity concert “Give Life”, held on Children’s Day on June 1, 2005 at the Sovremennik Theater. This concert brought together artists, volunteers, and philanthropists. And then action after action began. It became clear that it was necessary to create a fund and somehow systematize the assistance.
How has working with the foundation changed you?
I became more open. My ability to communicate has increased. Previously, I mainly communicated only with theater and cinema people, but I myself interesting topic for me there was a discussion of the role drawing. Nowadays, amazing children and their parents, doctors and nurses, volunteers are always next to me, and these are the most different professions and social strata.
After meeting the children who are treated in our hospitals and entering the special world of their childhood, where life and death, joy and suffering, pain and despair are perceived in all their severity and uncompromisingness, I learned a lot myself and understood a lot. I have become absolutely immune to philistine conversations, “problems” that are not such. I learned to distinguish between what is nonsense and stupidity, insignificant vanity, banal selfishness, and what is truly important and urgent. We must always remember that there is nothing more important in life than the health of the people around us.
What does this activity give you personally?
I'm probably being selfish and just enjoying it. It’s an incredible pleasure to see children being treated and discharged, to see their eyes. It lifts my spirits when I see how the parents of their children lift their spirits, knowing that they were not left alone with grief. They look at her in such a way that they no longer need fame, ratings, or all this tinsel associated with the concept of “popular artist.” And that makes me happy.
It gives me a lot of love. We live in a time when the concept of “love” is devalued. Every person feels a lack of love, tenderness, warmth. I'm like happy man, I receive such an avalanche of warmth, kindness, love that I then live with it for a very long time. In addition, I live with a sense of participation in changing reality in the truest sense of the word. And this is also a wonderful feeling that moves me forward productively, positively, constructively. I understand why I live on this earth. I have the app, I'm a happy person.
Why do people start doing charity?
Everyone has their own prerequisites. Someone simply cannot help but feel other people's pain and grief. And all the impulses of an outstretched hand and kindness occur in him unconsciously. There are people who fear God and want to change their lives in order not to be tormented by this fear. There are people who need weight in society. Maybe they don’t feel other people’s pain, but they exist in society and it is important for them to look good in it. I am very glad that social responsibility of companies and individuals is developing in Russia, and many people believe that they should do charity work because it has a positive effect on their reputation.
What do you need to do to start helping?
And you look into the eyes of these children, their mothers and doctors to understand that something needs to be done. It's obvious, that's all. I am very glad that there are people who only have to mention a problem, and they already run to the hospital, come up with something, and involve their friends. They are very different, these people. Among them there are those who have serious capital. And there are very poor people who are also ready to help. And they carry some hundred, some a thousand rubles, come up after the performances and hand over money in envelopes that simply say “Children.” But the main thing in helping is sincerity, selflessness, this is something eternal and unshakable.

Our story
The fund did not arise from scratch. Its first employees were those who for many years, as volunteers, helped doctors treat children and children get treatment. Once upon a time, the concepts of “pity, mercy, kindness” were considered manifestations of weakness and it was not customary to speak about them out loud. Of course, there have always been people who helped their loved ones and friends, but there was no such charity as a movement - numerous and aimed at helping complete strangers who were in trouble.
