According to the study, the people of<br \/>\nEstonia see the availability of treatment for medical conditions as the most<br \/>\nimportant social problem in Estonia.<\/p>\n<p>When Emor asked the more than one thousand people surveyed<br \/>\nto spontaneously name charities they know, the cancer treatment foundation<br \/>\n&#8220;The Gift of Life&#8221; came up most often, followed by the SOS Children&#8217;s<br \/>\nVillage and the Food Bank. People were also well aware of the children&#8217;s foundations<br \/>\nat various hospitals.<\/p>\n<p>Those surveyed rated the cancer treatment foundation&#8217;s<br \/>\nreputation the highest, followed by the SOS Children&#8217;s Village and Tartu<br \/>\nUniversity Hospital Children&#8217;s Foundation.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The cancer treatment foundation is the youngest<br \/>\norganisation involved in the study,&#8221; said Toivo T\u00e4navsuu, the head of<br \/>\n&#8220;The Gift of Life&#8221; foundation. \u201cYou could say it&#8217;s a 42-month-old<br \/>\nbaby. As such, the great trust placed in us is really encouraging and we&#8217;re<br \/>\nreally grateful for it. But it also means great responsibility before both our<br \/>\nbenefactors and our beneficiaries. Estonian people really care about the fight<br \/>\nagainst cancer and we do everything in our power to make sure no cancer patient<br \/>\nis left without a last chance.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;More than half of the Estonian population is involved<br \/>\nin charity,&#8221; said Heidi Reinson, the senior expert on behavioural science<br \/>\nwith Kantar Emor. &#8220;Fundraising is a public activity and people appreciate<br \/>\nthose whose activities they have a clear overview of. Charity has to be<br \/>\ntransparent and clear and solve problems that are important to everyone, such<br \/>\nas treatment or alleviation of medical conditions and supporting children<br \/>\nwithout parental care.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Although the study shows that the cancer treatment<br \/>\nfoundation&#8217;s field of activity \u2013 the availability of treatment \u2013 is seen as the<br \/>\nmost important social problem in Estonia, it is not the field to which people<br \/>\nare willing to contribute most themselves. According to Reinson, this shows<br \/>\nthat many people think that someone else, such as the Health Insurance Fund, should<br \/>\nensure the availability of vitally important treatment.<\/p>\n<p>Just over 1000 people aged 21-60 were surveyed for the<br \/>\nstudy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today, the research agency Kantar Emor presented a study<br \/>\ncommissioned by the SOS Children&#8217;s Village Estonia which showed that the cancer<br \/>\ntreatment foundation &#8220;The Gift of Life&#8221; is among the most reputable<br \/>\nand well-known charities in Estonia.
