I was barely managing to make ends meet and there was nothing I could do to save Swaroop. But the Nargis Dutt Foundation stepped in and took care of all the expenses. I can’t even imagine the consequences had they not been there for my son,,” says teary-eyed Devendra.The helplessness that Devendra felt is not uncommon among low-income families of cancer patients. There are many who helplessly see their dear ones, including children, lose their life in the most painful manner. Nargis Dutt Foundation has ensured that thousands of families don’t see this fate. It’s been a ray of hope for thousands of cancer patients since its inception over 40 years back. You can help save many more patients with cancer.

When I saw my mother struggling for life it left a lifelong impact on me. Her condition had deteriorated to such an extent she was almost unrecognisable. I know how it feels like to lose a loved one to cancer and I am not alone in my grief. There are thousands of people struggling to save their family members,” says Priya, daughter of noted actress Nargis Dutt, who lost her life to cancer, and in whose name the NGO has been founded. Priya has made it her life’s mission to save as many cancer patients as she can, but she can not do it alone. Nargis Dutt Foundation needs your support. Your donation can not only save cancer patients but can give life to entire families.Need for the fundraiserCancer is often seen as a death sentence. But doctors say that if detected early and if a patient receives essential treatment, the illness can be defeated and the person can return to their lives. “Treatment of cancer often depends on multiple factors including the type of cancer and the stage in which it is detected. Some patients require surgery while some can be cured with just chemotherapy or immunotherapy. “Whatever may be the need, our nonprofit supports patients till the time they are cancer free. We not only take care of the cost of treatment but even assist patients with nutrition which is vital in the fight against cancer. Moreover, we ensure that family members who are already facing immense hardships get proper accommodation and food during treatment so they don’t suffer any further,” says the NGO leader. With your support, Nargis Dutt Foundation can help patients win the fight against cancer and save their families from grief of losing a loved one.Donate to this fundraiser by Give, India’s largest and most trusted fundraising platform, to support Nargis Dutt Foundation in their mission to give life-saving chemotherapy and care to cancer patients who can not afford treatment.

Dev Pratap and Chandni know what it means to go to bed hungry. They grew up in slums, picking rags and doing odd jobs to survive. There were days when they didn’t know where the next meal would come from. But even then, they chose to share what little they had. With the few rupees they could save, they started feeding children. They worked as waiters in restaurants and took on every possible job to keep their small effort alive.Today, that effort has grown into a full-fledged mission. Their NGO Voice of Slums now feeds over 800 children every single day—365 days a year.They have put together everything from large utensils to a delivery van for distribution, the only challenge they face is to arrange rations in such a large quantity each day. And you can support them in this fight by donating to the cause. Your contribution can feed tens of kids who are in urgent need of nutrition. Donate generously!Donate easily through UPI, all debit/credit cards and net banking. Charitable donations to this fundraising campaign are tax exempted under 80G of the Income Tax Act (India)."These children wait for us with plates in hand..."<img src="https://cfstatic.give.do/83da1512-1741-44cf-bff2-90e45d1e1275.webp" />In slums, food is not just nourishment, it’s hope.

I can see hope in their eyes.” Chandni says.These are children who have no one to care for them. Many have lost their parents. Others are neglected and forgotten by society. For them, Dev, Chandni, and their team are family—their only source of warmth, nutrition, and safety.A battle against hunger every single dayFeeding 800 children isn’t easy. It takes dedication, organisation, and above all, resources.“We have a full team, an equipped kitchen, and a van for delivery. All we need is rations.”The meals provided aren’t just to fill stomachs, they’re packed with nutrition, designed to help growing children regain strength, energy, and the will to dream again.“At times, I have sleepless nights just thinking how these kids might be surviving.

Where will they go?” Dev adds.<img src="https://cfstatic.give.do/f25b705a-dd73-4ae7-91b5-0bd330008bff.webp" />You can make sure no child sleeps hungryYour donation will help Voice of Slums continue providing hot meals to children who have no one else.

“Preeti (name changed) was just six when she was brought to Mumbai and only nine when she was sold into Kamathipura’s red-light area. We rescued her a few years later, but by then, she had already endured unimaginable trauma. Her stories broke my heart. That’s when I resolved to dedicate my life to ending the trafficking and exploitation of children,” says Aaboo Varghese, who left a successful corporate career to take up this fight. “Preeti tragically lost her life years later to HIV, a result of the abuse she suffered as a child,” Aaboo sharesAaboo has dedicated his life to saving children from the horrors of red light areas, but he can not do it alone. With your support, he can bring freedom and light into the lives of many more unfortunate victims of child trafficking. Support him now!Donate easily through UPI, all debit/credit cards and net banking. Charitable donations to this fundraising campaign are tax exempted under 80G of the Income Tax Act (India).<img src="https://cfstatic.give.do/e761cdec-04ae-4d1a-be56-19669a0dc71e.webp" />A crisis of mammoth proportionsThe scale of human trafficking is something most people cannot even imagine. “Every day, about six children are trafficked. This is a fast-growing business because unlike anything else, a human being can be sold over and over again. It is alarming and heart-wrenching,” Aaboo shares.But no matter how daunting the task might be Aaboo has made it his life mission to see the fight against human trafficking till the end. Living in a hell on earth“The abuse young girls face in red-light areas is beyond comprehension,” Aaboo shares. “These young girls are robbed of their innocence and their childhood. Traffickers beat them with rods, burn them, and mutilate their private parts just to break them. Children are kept in separate apartments where multiple men abuse them and get addicted to substances”, Aaboo says. Through his NGO Purnata, Aaboo is on a mission not just to rescue the victims from red-light areas but also to rehabilitate them and give them a fresh start in life. To date, he has saved 85 children and 60 women from red-light areas, but for him, the job is far from over. Aaboo has dedicated his life to this cause. Your contribution can strengthen his efforts.
