NO PATIENT SHOULD DIE OF A REVERSIBLE DISEASE DUE TO LACK OF MONEY
OUR MISSION
"No patient should die of a reversible disease due to lack of money"
THIS ENTRENCHED THOUGHT IN THE YOUNG MINDS OF DR NEELESH REDDY AND DR MANJUNATH DOSHETTY GAVE BIRTH TO JEEVAN AADHAR MEDICAL FOUNDATION ON 24TH DECEMBER 2009 AT BENGALURU. KEEPING THIS MISSION, JEEVAN AADHAR MEDICAL FOUNDATION WAS ESTABLISHED AS A NOT-FOR-PROFIT ORGANIZATION IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE COMPLETION OF THEIR SPECIALIZATION IN ONCOLOGY AND NEPHROLOGY RESPECTIVELY.
IN THE INITIAL DAYS, WE STARTED OFF WITH SMALL CONTRIBUTIONS FROM OWN MEAGER EARNINGS TO RENDER FINANCIAL AID TO THE NEEDY PATIENTS. WITH THIS, THE TRUST STARTED PROCURING FREE MEDICINES FROM PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANIES FOR OUR PATIENTS & THEIR TREATMENTS. THESE ACTIVITIES WENT ON FOR A FEW YEARS ALBEIT IN AN INFORMAL WAY. SUBSEQUENTLY, THE TRUST INCORPORATED TWO MORE LIKE MINDED TRUSTEES DR CN PATIL, ONCOLOGIST AND MR SANJEEB KALITA, ENTREPRENEUR.
AFTER BEARING THE TEETHING ADMINISTRATIVE HURDLES FOR A FEW YEARS, WE DECIDED TO SCALE UP ITS ACTIVITIES IN AN ORGANIZED STRUCTURE WITH BETTER PENETRATION TO SEMI URBAN AND RURAL AREAS. IN THIS CONTEXT, CONSIDERING THE NATIVE ROOTS OF THE FOUNDERS, THE TRUST’S BASE OF OPERATIONS WAS SHIFTED TO KALABURAGI IN 2016-2017.
WE THEN TOOK UP THE MUCH-NEEDED PROJECT OF STARTING A HIGH-QUALITY BLOOD BANK IN SEPTEMBER 2019 AT KALABURAGI. WITH THE HELP OF UNSECURED LOANS AND FUNDS FROM FAMILY AND FRIENDS, THE JEEVAN AADHAR BLOOD BANK WAS OPERATIONALISED IN FEBRUARY 2021.
FIGHTING GREAT ODDS, WE DIVERSIFIED ITS ACTIVITIES TOWARDS EDUCATION IN PREVENTIVE HEALTHCARE & HEALTH AND DISEASE EDUCATION VIA OUTREACH AND BLOOD DONATION CAMPS.
OVER THE LAST 2 YEARS, WE HAS BEEN ABLE TO CONTINUALLY FUND THE TREATMENT OF PATIENTS WITH CANCER, KIDNEY FAILURE, SNAKE BITES AND POISONING.
