Hearts Behind the Foundation: The Heart Whisperer

My association with Genesis Foundation began in 2024. I feel so blessed to be a part of such noble work that looks only at child heart treatment. An opportunity to create meaningful change in the world. Stepping into the lives of individuals and community and giving them the best you can. I am grateful that through this field I have the power to uplift those who are struggling or are in need, in ways either by giving my heart and soul to the project or to create avenues for donation to charity that I am involved with. My first visit to the hospital to see a 5 month old baby in terrible pain, but a smile on her face left me with a flood of emotions through my mind. Since my school days I have been inclined towards helping others and most importantly giving back to society. I had participated in different social events but never ever had given a thought of taking this on as a career. My story of being a social worker was not meant to be, but yes destiny always pans out the way it’s suppo...

It is that time of the year where we celebrate with our friends and family by thanking the year that went by and welcome the beautiful New Year. I generally spend this time planning the next year ahead for my organisation, mapping the next year for my family and myself. However, this time it was different, this year, we at Sennheiser wanted to give back to the society and spread the love we got from our consumers.

As I woke up to check my daily schedule and meetings that were lined up for the day, I looked ahead for a special meeting. The meeting was special since I was to have an interaction with little children, an interaction that indeed was the most fulfilling one. I met Vaishnavi, Love and Vinni three kids at Max Hospital, Saket. All these three children come from under-privileged backgrounds, who have challenging (life-threatening) stories to share and yet showcase exemplary strength.

These little souls were children who were being supported by Genesis Foundation. And even though struggling with heart disorders at such a young age, they had radiant smiles which was both warm and welcoming. Each child I met had a hole in the heart, but that hole couldn’t dampen their spirit- the spirit to fight for life. It was indeed the best closure to the year since we were to embark on a journey with Genesis Foundation to save these little hearts and give them a chance to lead a healthy and happy life.
