With generous donations from philanthropists, last year we could change the lives of two children, who are now doing very well.
The Foundation works to get insulin pumps from the Medtronic Company at the cost of Rs. 1.60 lakhs each and donate these pumps to deserving children so that the headache and heartache of 3-4 pinpricks each day for insulin delivery combined with the chance of a young mind forgetting a dose is eliminated. Also, the delivery and quantity of insulin delivered to young person is controlled in such a way that better blood sugar control is ensured on a continuous basis.
We urge you to consider making a donation to the Foundation and help us reach more children affected by Type 1 Diabetes. We sincerely believe it is a gift worthy of your consideration.
We are happy to announce that any donation made to the Foundation will get a tax exemption under section 80G (5) (vi) of the IT Act 1961.
