Can you support a 9 year old child fighting cancer

This child is battling his life against a rare type of blood cancer - Refractory AML. He has been recommended for Bone Marrow Transplant, but not able to get it due to lack of funds

The annual income of the family is just 50K and they come from poor economic backgrounds in Odisha. Parents had to leave their job to get the treatment in Mumbai, hence they have no source of income currently.

People these days are not trusting crowdfunding links even though there's an option of directly contributing to hospital account and getting 80G

CSR of companies not responding on mail. Foundations aren't working or so great. Can someone please guide me on how I can raise this child? Thoda child is really needy and needs support as much as possible

A good twitter thread might help. Plus proof that you’ve donated yourself.

The account should definitely look genuine.

We have already done this. A Twitter Thread is already there with proof of expenses from the family side as well as the crowdfunded amount till now.

My only fear is that if his health worsens again. Currently his minimal residual disease (MRD) is negative which means it's the perfect time to do BMT

File in milaap, gofundme. Spread the word appropriately in LinkedIn, Twitter, with a direct link to the donations page. People will pour in to help.

Oh he requires a Bone Marrow Transplant, how old is the child?

@WryExile38 is absolutely right. You will need to first exhaust your Friends and Family network for this and raise as much.

Next, use that as leverage that you’ve done all that you can and now you are reaching out to everyone.

Ask your friends to retweet it or share it with as many people as possible.

The child is 9 years old. I've exhausted my network. Managed to get 4.34 lakh in the hospital account. Approximately 21 lakh still needs to be collected. Applied for CMRF also, but it's pending.

TATA Trust takes months. No response from them yet.

Yes, we have made a thread. Response is slow. I'm just hoping for the best for the child
