Child Health

A major part of the work carried out by Shishu Lifesaver Foundation is dedicated to helping children who are bravely fighting life-threatening medical conditions. Every year, thousands of children in India are diagnosed with serious illnesses such as cancer, congenital heart diseases, severe blood disorders, neurological conditions, and other critical health complications. For many of these children, early and proper treatment could save their lives — but unfortunately, high medical expenses put this hope out of reach for families from low-income backgrounds.

Most parents we meet are daily wage workers, farmers, labourers, or individuals with unstable incomes. They struggle to afford even basic necessities, let alone advanced medical care that often runs into lakhs of rupees. The emotional and financial burden leaves them helpless, and many families face the heartbreaking reality of having to choose between debt, distress, and their child’s survival.

This is where Shishu Lifesaver Foundation steps in — as a bridge of hope, compassion, and support. Our mission is simple yet powerful: to ensure that no child dies because their family cannot afford treatment.

Our Medical Support Program

Through our medical assistance initiatives, we strive to reduce the financial and emotional suffering of vulnerable families. We provide timely support in critical cases, especially when treatment delays can cost a child’s life. Our interventions include:

1. Financial Aid for Surgeries and Lifesaving Medical Treatments

We offer partial or full financial support for children who require urgent surgeries, organ transplants, life-saving procedures, and long-term hospitalization. This includes support for congenital heart surgeries, pediatric cancer surgeries, and corrective operations for severe disorders.

2. Support for Cancer Care and Specialized Pediatric Procedures

Cancer treatment for a child is physically, emotionally, and financially overwhelming. From chemotherapy to bone marrow transplants, the procedures are extremely expensive and often prolonged. We provide financial assistance for:

We work closely with hospitals and medical teams to ensure children receive timely medical care without unnecessary delays.

3. Assistance With Medicines, Diagnostic Tests, and Emergency Care

Many families cannot afford essential medical requirements such as:

We step in to support these recurring and urgent medical expenses, ensuring that treatment does not stop midway due to lack of funds. In emergency cases, our team responds quickly to provide immediate financial and logistical support.

4. Emotional and Psychological Support for Families

Critical illness affects more than just the child — it affects the entire family. Parents often feel lost, scared, or emotionally overwhelmed. Our team offers:

We stand beside families as companions, not just service providers. We believe that compassion can heal as much as medicine.

Our Commitment

At Shishu Lifesaver Foundation, we believe deeply that every child deserves a chance to live, grow, and dream, regardless of their financial background. No child should be denied a future simply because treatment is unaffordable.

Every life we save is a reminder of why our mission matters.
Every smile we bring back is a victory of humanity.
And every child we support strengthens our belief that the world becomes better when we stand together.
