Fundraising
Support Cancer Patients
Fatima Old Age Home receives several heart-wrenching appeals for help every single day.
We try our very best to help poor cancer patients through treatment at our frequent OPDs across India, and also through our Central Drug Repository.
But, we are dependent on your help and support for patients who have no funds to seek treatment and palliative care.
Help us to fund their treatments by contributing as little as a dollar, or a hundred rupee because every bit counts.
Give some poor patient a shot at healing!
