Frantic Call

Friends, SAHYOG has been receiving requests through Mansoor of New Life and other sources. So far, we have been able to meet only small expenses due to our limited funds. We call upon all our well-wishers to help us become more active. Please do send in your donations and also canvass for donations from your family members and friends. We suggested that you could donate an amount Rs.100/- a month towards SAHYOG. It will go a long way in helping us save many lives or mean something for many souls.

In fact, Mansoor proposed that SAHYOG could meet a day's food expenses for the paliative care ward at Kidwai Memorial Hospital, once in a month, which may amount to around Rs.3000/-. Just imagine the plight of the kith and kin of the patients counting days in this ward, after having spent all their funds and most of their energy on getting their relatives treated! It is really a very heart-rending scene over there. Patients from around the State and even our neighbouring states come there with high hopes and it is sad that many of them land in the paliative care ward. 90% of the patients here belong to the poorest of the poor category and our feeding them and their caretakers for just a day in a month will be a very noble cause. Anybody interested in committing to Rs.3000 a month, please hurry up and let us know. We will arrange for the donation in your name.

Update

Ms.Veena's Chemo charges costed another Rs.3945/- besides the Rs.6000/- that we disbursed earlier. This amount was paid to Kidwai Memorial Hospital.

Mrs.Subashini Reddy works as a helper in a private establishment in Chennai. She is all alone, as her only son and daughter-in-law have disowned her. She was diagnosed of breast cancer and is undergoing treatment at M.S.Ramaiah Hospital. Her colleagues and well-wishers collected donations and started the treatment. There was a shortage of Rs.6500/-, which SAHYOG met. Hope the treatment is successful and Subashini is back in action to earn her livelihood in a dignified manner.
