| Project Name | Medical Aid for cancer patients |
| Amount Utilized (INR) | 2008964 |
| Project Description | The funds raised by CPAA in TMM 2023 were utilized primarily for providing Medical Aid to Cancer Patients. Underprivileged cancer patients were provided with aid in the form of lifesaving chemotherapy drugs, investigations, radiation etc. The aid was provided to cancer patients from all age groups suffering from various cancers according to the treatment protocol prescribed by the treating oncologist. Many underprivileged cancer patients stop treatment due to lack of funds. The funds raised from TMM have enabled the patients to continue with their treatment. Apart from medical aid, nutritional aid (diet supplements and food grains) were also given to the cancer patients. |
