In India, over 200,000 kids have a heart defect at birth, i.e, a Congenital Heart Defect, affecting their entire lives ahead of them. Most of them have to get not one but many surgeries of varying severity to combat this illness. Imagine the plight of a parent who has to see their child suffer from something as serious as a heart problem. To add to it, they find out the problem is critical and the child needs multiple rounds of life-altering  surgeries. Now, to add to it, the parents don’t have the affordability to fund the medical procedures. Just the thought of it gives you chills, doesn’t it? Here’s what we can do about it.

An accurate and timely diagnosis has become critical in changing the long-term outcome for many conditions. This can be cancer, heart conditions, neurological conditions like autism in children, a diagnosis made on time enables one to undertake proactive steps and seek the right medical advice and treatment to ensure a better outcome.  When it comes to congenital heart defects (CHDs) also known as hole in heart by birth , the situation is also not so different. There was a time when a diagnosis of a congenital heart defect would have meant a death sentence- that is not the case anymore. In most cases CHDs can be treated, timely diagnosis being the key.  According to the World Health Organization (WHO), adverse perinatal outcomes and birth defects are responsible for the loss of 15 million years of healthy life due to premature death and disability.

From welcoming guests to buying new clothes, we are all privileged enough to fill each day with happiness and enthusiasm.

  Access to healthcare continues to remain a big challenge in countries like India. While the government has played a significant role in improving this to a large extent, there continue to exist many areas where people have limited or no access to specialized healthcare. This is especially true when one talks of congenital heart defects. Congenital hearts Defects(CHDs) are the leading birth defects in the country. Inspite of that awareness regarding the same is very less leading to a delay in diagnosis and treatment. The treatment for these defects continues to remains expensive and there are not many facilities that offer freeheart surgery for poor in India . With improvements in medicine, most children born with a CHD can live a near normal life, given they receive a timely diagnosis and treatment. However, since awareness remains low and the number of pediatric cardiac care centers remain low, not many children are able to get detected on time. Not only are the pediatric cardia

  What are corporate donations? To put it simply, it is donations from a corporate to a   charity or a nonprofit organization to help them achieve their organization’s mission. This, in turn, benefits the entire society as we have enabled them to create better opportunities for people. Charity can be given in several ways; the simplest is donating to organisations that support the lesser privileged . Corporate charity donations are an integral part of giving donations in general and should not be overlooked, especially because they allow charities to work with a sustained flow of funds allowing them to implement work that has a large-scale impact. Now, what are the benefits? It might seem more meaningful to simply provide for those in immediate need, such as the destitute. While this itself should not be shunned, it is equally important to consider organisations that work in other areas as well such as education, healthcare, skilling etc. Why? Simply put, these organizations exist

दिल में सुराख कैसे होता है तथा इसका इलाज़ अथवा उपचार या बचाव कैसे किया जा सकता है यह कुछ ऐसे सवाल हैं जिनका जवाब इंटरनेट पर काफी तलाशा जाता है।  दिल में सुराख होने की बीमारी को मेडिकल भाषा में 'कॉन्जेनिटल हार्ट डिफेक्ट्स' (सीएचडी) कहते हैं तथा । मानव दिल की संरचना के हिसाब से दिल में चार चेम्बर होते हैं और दिल में सुराख होने का मतलब है कि दिल के दो चैम्बरों के बीच की दीवार में छेद होना, जिससे खून का प्रवाह असामान्य हो जाता है। जो कि आजकल ह्रदय से जुड़ी बीमारी का होना आम बात हो गई। यह समस्या आमतौर पर कुछ बच्चो में जन्म से होती है, लेकिन कुछ मामलों में बाद में भी हो सकती है। कई बार माता-पिता और परिवार वाले दिल में होने वाले सुराख के शुरुआती लक्षणों को पहचान नहीं पाते हैं।  दिल में सुराख की वजह अलग-अलग हो सकती है। काफ़ी दोष जन्मजात होते हैं, जो गर्भावस्था के दौरान दिल के भागों के सही से विकसित न होने के कारण होते हैं। ये सुराख दिल के ऊपरी भाग, जिसे एट्रियल कहते है और निचले भाग जिसे वेंट्रिकल्स कहते है इन दोनों कक्षाओं में हो सकते हैं, और रक्त का प्रवाह को प्रभावित कर सकते हैं। दिल

How corporate donations to charity are saving lives?

-

In a world, where people are partitioned by their economic status and their position in the societal hierarchy, change makers have transformed nonprofits into the flag bearers of philanthropy. Despite doing so much for the society, many of us aren't willing to make donations to these NGOs to help them amplify their flow of funds. Hence, it is critical for organisations to step up corporate donations to nonprofits .   India was the first nation to mandate Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) for companies legally. Due to this, corporate donations to nonprofits act as an aid in tackling problems at scale. Providing for a nonprofit does not only benefit the NGO but also the provider. Since 2014, when the revolutionary government decision regarding CSR was made, corporate donations have seen a surge in number. When the world was recovering from the pandemic, it was corporate donations that made a colossal impact in the sphere of nonprofits. India is a country with more than three mill
