Manik Deb, 10 years old, was suddenly diagnosed with a fatal heart disease, Large Secundum ASD, leaving him with a gaping hole in his heart. An urgent surgical closure of the hole was required unless he was willing to bear the health risks.

If this devastating news wasn’t enough, the surgery also came with a hefty fee he was unable to pay. Manik’s father had passed away when he was only 1 month old. He had no other extended family that he could lean on for help, leaving him to shoulder the burden with his mother. This left his mother Dolly, a day care and domestic worker, to take care of the financial burden. 

We, Saarthi4All, were obliged to help Manik, he mustn’t worry about scraping together money for his own surgery. We helped him collect Rs. 55000 for his surgery.
