Karunashraya render free professional palliative care and free home care service to advanced stage cancer patients due to generous contributions made by its well-wishers. Since its humble inception in 1994, Karunashraya has cared for and touched the lives of more than 21500 cancer-stuck patients and their families.
Cancer is growing at 11% per year in India. This coupled with the fact that 80% of cancer patients visit hospitals for the first time when the disease has reached its advanced stage. In Bangalore, there are many cancer patients who have not been able to avail our free care. To be able to cater to patients in other parts of Bangalore such as North, South and West Bangalore we have set up "Link Centers" " which will enable us to provide to a larger number of advanced stage cancer patients.
