Impact:

Anushree Shetty was just 2 years old when her parents came to know that she was suffering from Acute Myeloid Leukemia (a type of Blood Cancer). Just imagine the plight and agony of the parents who suddenly realize that their only child was suffering from such a dreaded disease. The doctors advised her to take a treatment for duration of 2 years. Her father was working as an ordinary clerk in a private company and as such he was not able to afford the expensive treatment of cancer, they approached us for help. We have given medical aid in her entire treatment and given proper guidance to them when required. Now Anushree is in complete remission and regularly attending her school.

The mission of our Foundation is to take complete care of Cancer Patients and we are very happy to state that Anushree's innocent smile throws light on the success of our dedicated mission.
