EVERY MOMENT COUNTS

Congenital Heart Defect (CHD) is a neonatal birth defect due to abnormal development of the heart that could involve the interior walls of the heart, the valves inside the heart, or the arteries and veins that carry blood to the heart or the body.

Blue Baby Syndrome is another term used for CHD. CHD affects approximately nine out of 1,000 newborns and is one of the leading causes of infant mortality. However, early detection and right treatment increases the chance of survival and has good long-term prognosis among newborns. Around 90% of CHD-affected children can be treated if diagnosed early, even better if it gets detected before birth.

One of the main reasons that it is leading cause of infant mortality is because most of the patients are poor. They are either ignorant of the fact about the existence of the disease or do not have the resources to treat the children. CHD is to be detected at birth or even before. But the poor, uneducated people are not even aware of such things.

Aishwarya Trust aims to take care of these little hearts – one heart at a time.

The cause of saving the lives of children with congenital heart defects is very dear to my heart. Having gone through the treatment of CHD with my child, I know the trauma of the families affected by it. The situation is even more heartbreaking if the parents do not have the means to bear the cost of the treatment. As early diagnosis and treatment can save the lives and cure these children,it is very important that we ensure that every child affected by CHD gets a chance to be treated. Aishwarya Trust is doing commendable work in this direction to help children from economically vulnerable backgrounds to get access to the best available treatment in the country. Do come forward and help Aishwarya Trust to increase the magnitude of their work if you can…Giving Charity Increases your wealth!
