Well-known Russian singer and her Belarusian husband, Kadyrov's advisor, transferred over 100 thousand euros for the treatment of three-year-old Ksyusha with SMA
In just one day, the charity account in Russian rubles, opened to raise funds for a life-saving injection for three-year-old Ksyusha from Mogilev, was topped up by almost 100 thousand euros — with a single transaction.
The story of Ksyusha Moiseenko from Mogilev is actively spreading on social media. The girl is currently 3.5 years old, and in 2024 she was diagnosed with spinal muscular atrophy type 2. One injection can stop the progression of the disease, which gradually takes away all skills — we're talking about the drug Zolgensma. But the cost of the therapy is $1.8 million.
For such a significant fundraising boost, volunteers thanked singer Keti Topuria, soloist of the group 'A-Studio', and her husband's company. This refers to Lev Dengov (Pavel Guzband) — a native of Minsk, a businessman who also serves as an advisor to the head of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov, and to the State Secretary of the Union State, Dmitry Mezentsev.
«We want to express our boundless, enormous gratitude to our main benefactors for this powerful breakthrough — Keti Topuria, her husband, their company, and employees! You gave us wings and the belief that anything is possible. Thank you for your kind heart, for your concern, and for being with us in this difficult struggle,» — wrote volunteers on the account where they share fundraising updates.

Lev Dengov is a prominent figure in the political and public life of Russia, and more recently, in the biotechnology sector. He completed school in Minsk but received higher education in Russia and Germany. His name became widely known in the second half of the 2010s due to his personal involvement in the process of freeing Russian and Belarusian citizens from detention in Libya.
In late 2022, Lev Dengov founded the company 'Adam Bio'. According to media reports, in early 2023, it signed a contract for the sale of BNBC products on the Russian market worth 11.82 billion Russian rubles (about $150 million). Earlier this year, Lev Dengov became an advisor to CITIC International Investments and CITIC Construction in Russia and Belarus. One of them, CITIC International Investments, is one of the founders and key shareholders of BNBC. The Belarusian state and a group of companies from the UK and UAE also participated in the corporation's creation (their composition later changed).
The complex for the production of animal feeds, premixes, and amino acids, located in the Pukhovichi district, was officially launched in November 2022. To ensure its raw material supply, BNBC was given farms in five districts of the country with a total land fund exceeding 100,000 hectares.
Dengov also joined the board of directors of the Belarusian National Biotechnology Corporation.

Partly thanks to the transfer from Dengov and Topuria, 30% of the total amount for Ksyusha's injection still needs to be raised today — just over 510 thousand dollars.
