Dear Donors,
We have been able to create an everlasting transformation in the lives of more than 165 underprivileged children and with your support we will touch many more lives……. We are really proud to be associated with GlobalGiving Team for the support they are rendering to Abhilasha Foundation and saving the lives of underprivileged children... Wehave completed 165 open heart surgeries this would not have been possible without your support……We are overwhelmed with the support given by the GlobalGiving Team and making us a part of their large family.Abhilasha Foundation has been giving the financial support for the open heart surgeries of the underprivileged children and validated their faith on our organization.We request the GlobalGiving Team to spread awareness about Abhilasha Foundation and its causes and raise more funds so that many more underprivileged children can be treated and will lead a normal life…. Further request to the GlobalGivingTeam to invite the potential donors to donate generously on our various projects so that it reaches the beneficiaries. Together we can eradicate poverty, illiteracy, malnutrition and violence.
Case story of a beneficiary who had a successful open heart surgery:
She is 1year old baby girl suffering from Perimembranous VSD (Itmay spontaneously decrease in size and eventually close) and she needs to undergo ICR of VSD Closure (is usually performed by sewing a patch of fabric or pericardium (the normal lining around the outside of the heart)over the VSD to close it completely. Due to their poor financial condition they had been going door to door for financial support and hence could not operateher.Her health started deteriorating day by day, her parents took her to Balaji Heart Hospital & Diagnostic Center, Byculla, Mumbai. Doctors informed them that she requires an urgent Open Heart Surgery as early as possible. Her father works as a Labourer inGadchiroli, Maharashtra and her mother is a housewife. Her father earns only Rs. 2083/- per month. Since the entire family and his parents are dependent on him, he naturally is not in a position to bear the cost of the treatment of his daughter.
After coming to Abhilasha Foundation he had a hope that his daughter will get a new life and will lead a normal life. Abhilasha Foundation gave all the financial support for her surgery and treated her. She is now fine and leading a normal life. We thank the GlobalGiving Team for supporting Abhilasha Foundation for raising funds for the surgery and treatment of the underprivileged children…..
