2011 - Our deeds

24-year-old Pradeep K is an enthusiastic youngster, an eco-lover and wildlife activist. He has applied for a Government job. Last month, he caught a King cobra snake in his locality and before leaving it in the wild, he wanted to conduct an awareness show in the nearby school. During the show, he was bitten by the snake and was rushed to a nearby health centre. Due to an overdose of anti-dote and also due to some wrong first aid actions, his health condition worsened and he was admitted to M.S.Ramaiah Hospital. He underwent a surgery and had to be treated in the ICU due to so many complications. Despite the concessions extended by the hospital, the family had to meet Rs.20000/- expenses at the hospital. Pradeep is the only breadwinner of the poor family and hence SAHYOG assisted the family in meeting the expenses. Pradeep's treatment was successfully completed and he went home safely.

Sushmita, a 22-year-old lady is 6 months pregnant. Her husband is an auto-driver and a drunkard. She tripped and fell down and has been advised various tests like the deluxe doppler test, etc., all of which will cost her nearly Rs.19000/- at the discounted rates in M.S.Ramaiah hospital. Her husband has not turned up for days together and the poor parents and parents-in-law have been attending to her. Many young volunteers have collected a major portion of the amount and SAHYOG contributed Rs.3000/- towards the above expenditure. We wish the young mother and the new life all the best.
