\"Supporting<\/p>\n

In India, pediatric cardiac care is at a juxtaposition. On one side we have growing awareness, the inception of many children heart foundations, stellar research facilities, and spectacular hospitals providing world-class treatment, by renowned doctors and staff. On the other hand, the financial burdens of the surgery leave families helpless.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

More than 200,000 children are diagnosed with Congenital Heart Disease<\/a> (CHD) in India, every year. This is considering a birth prevalence of 9\/1000 and about one-fifth of them will need early intervention in their first year. Where one cardiac center caters to a population of 120,000 in North America, 16 million population is served by one center in Asia (Lower-Middle Income). The average cost of the surgery is 2500 USD – 5000 USD. However, this doesn\u2019t account for the post-operative costs, medicines, travel and other logistical costs.<\/p>\n

The world is moving toward achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly Goal 3: Good Health and Well-being. India carries a disproportionate burden of CHD, not because the solutions are unknown, but because resources remain limited and unevenly distributed. NGOs like Genesis Foundation are mission-driven organizations but they often lack the funds and partnerships necessary to scale life-saving work. This is where global corporate stakeholders can make a transformative difference, not as donors alone, but as allies in a shared responsibility to ensure every child, regardless of geography or income, has a fighting chance at life.<\/p>\n

Why Should You Choose Genesis Foundation?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Genesis Foundation is a children heart foundation in India<\/a> which provides financial assistance to all children diagnosed with a congenital heart defect (CHD) under the age of 18, with family monthly income under 230 USD (Rs.20,000). Over the last 24 years, we have supported over 5,000 children.<\/p>\n
