Hi Friends,
Advait Shirbhayye here.
About 1 million cases of Parkinsons Disease are reported across India every year. This neurological disease, unfortunately, stands incurable, but treatment and social support can help immensely. In some areas, this debilitating condition is often stigmatized, thus alienating the people affected by the disease. However, PDMDS stands as a pillar of support for the unfortunate individuals suffering from the disease.
The NGO strives hard to spread awareness about the causes and symptoms of Parkinsons, curb stigmatization, and inform the public of this lesser known disease. But perhaps their greatest acts is that they run rehab centers in 13 states across India, where the patients come together to exercise with their mentors, socialize, and receive support- free of charge.
I strongly believe that every human should experience joy regardless of the adversities in life. PDMDS aligns strongly with my belief, and their wonderful initiative is what prompted me to help them.
A few months ago, I conducted a public survey for them, and I also visited one of their rehab centers. Their determination and goal is commendable and it inspired me to create this fundraiser.
Every rupee you contribute, will make an unfortunate patient smile. Your donations will be the base of our goal to make the lives of Parkinsons Disease
patients joyous and exciting.
Thank you!
