Small steps, Big impact
Thanks to your generosity, we’ve been able to provide critical medical assistance to children facing life-threatening heart defects. Baby Makizhan and Master Sudharshan have received the care they desperately needed. It is heartbreaking to see such young and innocent children suffer from heart diseases. But the impact you’ve created with your generous donations has put these children on the path to recovery. Thank you for being the heartbeat of our organization.
Empowering The Future
M.K. Jeeva lost his mother during the Covid-19 pandemic. As the son of a security guard, paying his school fees has been a tremendous challenge, especially since the passing of his mother. Jeeva also attends tuition classes after school, which adds to the expenses. Noel Foundation has been able to support Jeeva’s education to help him continue his schooling in Mogappair West, Chennai.
Help us continue supporting Jeeva, and others like him, by donating to our cause.
Empowering The Future
On 14th November 2023, Noel Foundation visited the Kanchi Kamakoti Child’s Trust hospital to celebrate the very heart of our Foundation – Children. We are grateful to Mr. Ravi Shankar, the CEO of the hospital, for having given us the opportunity to spend this day with their paediatric patients. We distributed stationary kits to the children, and we had the honour of spent time getting to know them and their parents.
We are grateful to the medical teams at every hospital that work passionately and tirelessly to save lives everyday, especially of little children. To know more about the special programme conducted to celebrate these brave little hearts and their families, read the full article here.
Art from the heart:
Indo american college
On 15th December 2023, we collaborated with the students of Indo American College, Chennai, for an art competition based on the theme ‘Hearts’. The event was a great success with the Undergraduate and Postgraduate students from all departments of the college participating in various competitions like drawing, Mehendi art, Best out of Waste, and so on; creating heart related art in each category. The best participants were awarded prizes for the same.
The students had a good time as well, gaining awareness about Congenital Heart Diseases, and Noel Foundation’s role in helping the affected children in their fight to survive – while also getting the opportunity to showcase their learning through their artistic talents.
The Need Continues
Yogeshwaran and Priyadarshini urgently need Complex Open Heart Surgeries, and need your support to get the surgery that can save their lives. Head over to our fundraiser link to donate now. Financial support is the one thing they need to get the life saving surgeries they need to treat their heart. With Yogeshwaran’s father being a lorry driver, and Priyadarshini’s father being a daily wage worker, neither of their families can afford to pay for their treatment.
We humbly request you to do whatever is possible to help save these children’s hearts. Even a contribution of Rs. 100 can support their medical needs. Click here to donate.
