FUND DISBURSEMENT
20 Filariasis patients were selected after a thorough survey and detailed verification of their financial position. As the main aim of the program is to support the deserving patients and continuing their treatment, this aim was brought to reality on 26th December 2011. We are very happy that Dr. Puchalapalli. Subba Reddy from USA, one of the major donor for this program through Global Giving have associated with us during inauguration of the program. On behalf of the Filariasis patients and STEPS Organization I convey my thanks and gratitude to him for attending this program and to Global Giving for giving this opportunity. We hope and pray that this support would continue for the patients with your generous support.
These activities are possible because of your support. Thank you for your generosity and for ensuring that poor Filariasis patients have a chance for a healthy life and for adding happiness in their lives. We invite you to take a tour of our operational site and meet some Filariasis patients who have benefited with the help of your generosity.
