The COVID-19 Pandemic has had a devastating impact on all. One of the premier institutions providing COVID Treatment in Mumbai is The Lokmanya Tilak Municipal General Hospital, popularly known as SION Hospital. Their COVID Ward is in URGENT need of CRITICAL LIFE SAVING EQUIPMENTS and Protective Gears for Doctors and Nurses worth INR 1.50 CRORE.
These are required to:
FIGHT the current pandemic wave.
PREPARE well in advance for future pandemic waves.
The Life Saving equipment includes ICU VENTILATORS, O2 concentrators, BIPAP Machines , Bronchoscopes, Anaesthesia machines, Syringe Infusion pumps, N-95 masks, Remdesivir injections etc.
AS OF 7th MAY THEY HAD 450 PATIENTS ADMITTED TO THEIR SPECIALISED COVID WARDS. THIS EQUIPMENT WILL HELP AUGMENT THE HOSPITAL’S CAPACITY TO TREAT COVID PATIENTS. THE LACK OF CRITICAL EQUIPMENT MAKES SAVING LIVES MORE DIFFICULT.
SION Hospital is a Municipal run 1900-bedded Hospital attached to the Lokmanya Tilak Municipal Medical College which treats all kinds of patients who come to Casualty, OPD and then are admitted to various specialized wards as required. Their Social Service Department is a part of the Hospital and reaches out through their Community Development Officers (CDOs) to the patients from economically weak & underprivileged sections of the society from the slums of Mumbai. They also reach out to patients from outside Mumbai & Maharashtra.
We, the members of The Rotary Club of Mumbai Nariman Point are raising INR 1.5 Crore to procure all the equipment (listed below). Each of us have goals of 2L each. However, since we need to raise a massive amount of INR 1.5CR, please continue to fund my campaign even if it goes past its initial goal.
Your efforts will help save more lives and help us win the battle against COVID.

Crowdfunding in India is a relatively new concept & is growing very quickly.
It’s a concept that allows a large number of funders (like you) to fund an idea or a cause or event by giving small amounts of money online. Fueladream.com is a crowdfunding platform in India that allows for such pooling of funds. You can fund innovations & ideas on FuelADream and be the first to get these products or make them come true. You can also do a good turn by funding charities and causes through crowdfunding. When you fund a charity it’s more like a donation & you get small innovative rewards like a shout-out on an FB page or a thank you email from the beneficiaries.
