Nine-year-old Aayat, suffering from thigh cancer, aspires to be a doctor one day. She is the youngest of six daughters of Abdul Rashid Bhat, a construction worker from Baramulla district, Kashmir. Her mother is a housewife.

Aayat is a bright and hardworking young girl who is doing well at school inspite of struggling with cancer for the last one year. Sadly, her parents cannot afford costly treatment. Help her by contributing towards her treatment and realising her dream of becoming a doctor.

We read about tragic loss caused by cancer everyday. Some of us have even seen it and felt it. But what have you personally done to fight cancer? Join BCPBF as it continues to support hundreds of cancer patients throughout South Asia.This is your chance to #BeTheLight

HOW ONE DOCTOR’S DREAM TO HELP HIS PATIENTS GAVE BIRTH TO BCPBF

It was the desire to help his patients beyond his clinic that prompted Dr Sameer Kaul, a renowned cancer specialist, to set up the Breast Cancer Patients Benefit Foundation (BCPBF) in September 2004. He got together a team of doctors, cancer survivors, and professionals from different walks of life to ensure that efforts were being led from varying perspectives.

Since then, BCPBF has been actively providing help to financially-constrained cancer patients in India and neighbouring countries like Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Bangladesh. In the interim, the foundation extends support and treatment to poor patients with all forms of cancer.

The foundation has so far given financial help to over 300 patients for treatment, supported 57 patients through the Medicine Bank, and screened 21,600 patients at its free medical camps.

YOU CAN HELP BCPBF SUPPORT MORE CANCER PATIENTS

The Foundation receives several heart-rending appeals for help every single day. We try our very best to help poor cancer patients through treatment at our frequent OPDs across South Asia, and also through our Central Drug Repository. But we are dependent on your help and support for patients who have no funds to seek treatment and palliative care.
