Solution

L'ENVOL welcomes seriously ill children aged 6 to 17 with various pathologies (cancers, rare diseases, chronic illnesses...) to its multipathology stays free of charge, who enjoy a truce from illness and take part in adapted, varied and fun activities.

Coached by recruited and trained volunteers, including doctors and nurses, sick children become children again, gaining in autonomy and resilience, and their caregivers benefit from respite time. They learn about the stays via a network of 72 partner hospitals, which identify children in the weary phase of illness.
