We want everyone in Calcutta to have access to quality and affordable medical care.
Free treatment for someone who cannot afford it is the difference between a life of suffering and poverty, and a life of beauty and opportunity.
Need 1
Treatment for Thalassemia and Leukaemia
It costs $35 a month to treat a child with Leukaemia or Thalassemia in India. It’s a small price tag for what it delivers: the stamina to stay in school, strength to help the family, and energy to run and play with friends.
Need 2
Cleft Lip & Palate Surgeries
Children born with cleft lips and palates in India are often mistreated or abandoned do to the ‘curse’ of their deformity. A mended smile would mean equal opportunity for the child and his family. A one-time donation of $500 pays for a cleft palate surgery, speech therapy, and orthodontics.
Need 3
Chaplain Salaries
Chaplains provide important one-on-one support to our patients, doctors, and nurses at our general hospital and clinics. It costs $22,500 a year to support the chaplaincy team.
Need 4
Red Light Rescue
We provide hands-on job training and employment to rescued sex workers from Calcutta’s red-light district. It costs $250 a month to employ three women.
Need 5
Adopt a Clinic
Our 12 rural clinics deliver free medical checkups, treatment, and health education to impoverished villages. It costs $2,000 a month to fund the operations of a clinic.
Need 6
Mother & Child Centre
Our Mother & Child Centre provides basic commodities, food, and a comfortable bed for mothers who travel long distances for their child’s treatment at Mercy Hospital. It costs $2000 a month to fund the Mother & Child Centre.
Need 7
No Village Left Behind
By 2025, we want to build 10 more clinics in rural India. To do this we need to raise $26,000 per clinic, for a grand total of $260,000, but that is how we are going to save lives in Calcutta.
