My name is SHREYA SRIRAM. I am 15 years old and in Grade 10 at the BVM School, Chennai.
This campaign of mine aims to impact the lives of children who come from the economically weaker classes of society. It is devastating to know that there are so many families in just Tamil Nadu that cannot afford something as basic as health care for their children. If you told me that we could actually save the life of someone, I would have been amused. But here I am now doing exactly that.
The fact that heart surgery can be done at such a low cost is another reason why I decided to do this campaign. I have undertaken this campaign because I don’t think children belong in hospitals. Doing this ensures that one more child gets a chance to go out and play rather than suffer at home. Further, I believe that healthcare is a basic necessity that should be available to everyone irrespective of their financial capabilities.
I request you to support me in this endeavor so that we can together save the lives of children!
