Bangalore Hospice Trust - Karunashraya

Location: Bangalore, India

Summary

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. Important Notice about Projects in India: We expect that there will be significant delays in getting funds to this project due to new regulatory requirements that impact GlobalGiving's ability to disburse to Indian-banked organizations. GlobalGiving is working hard to address the issue, but there is a chance that we will be unable to disburse funds to this project. If we cannot disburse funds, donations to this project may be reallocated to another organization per our terms and conditions.
