Last three items on this impressive list are pieces of hospital furniture to be used by parents staying by their children's side because the Foundation appreciates the importance and influence of family presence during children's treatment.

The Foundation aims to change that and provide hospitals with pull-down beds and recliners for parents.
Chairman of the board of the Foundation, Jurek Owsiak, announced the objective of the 1% charitable tax donation drive. According to Polish tax law, each citizen can choose a charitable organization which will receive 1% of their tax return. The Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity Foundation is one of the organizations eligible for 1% tax donation. The charity decided to support one of the most neglected branches of children's medicine in the country: child and adolescent psychiatric wards. Funds donated through tax return forms will be used to buy hospital furniture and other necessary devices to improve the condition of these wards.
