About Me
I am Suhaas, working with Dignity Foundation. I have worn many hats but being in the social sector and working for the welfare of senior citizens is thus far most rewarding. I like taking on challenges and this year, I have committed to a new one - of being a change runner at the Tata Mumbai Marathon 2025. This won't be possible without each of your support. The funds I raise through this campaign will be used to further a cause close to my heart - Improving the quality of lives of Senior citizens living with Dementia in India. Ultimately, my goal is to make Mumbai Dementia-ready!
Appeal
Support Dementia Care in Mumbai – Join Me in Making a Difference
In India, over 4 million people are currently living with dementia—a number expected to triple to a staggering 13 million by 2050, driven by our rapidly ageing population.
Yet, dementia remains widely underdiagnosed across the country. Many seniors and their families are left struggling due to limited awareness, and a severe lack of access to specialized care and support.
In Mumbai, the situation is especially dire. Currently, the city has just one dementia day care centre, run by Dignity Foundation, a 30-year-old NGO committed to elderly welfare. This centre offers crucial services such as memory therapy, cognitive activities, and social engagement for those living with dementia.
But the need is far greater—and growing every day.
