Appeal
8 Years of our effort with government Ministers, Secretaries to
sensitize importance of Hemophilia Care Center has Dream
come true to our 900 patients and families. Ultimately God
heard our prayers and the prayers of every Hemophilic of the
state, we have been allocated 5000sq feet in Victoria Hospital
with a condition that the complete interior work should be
done by us. We have taken up this challenge with a firm belief
that we have a fantastic set of friends/supporters and
relatives who will come forward and help us achieve this
dream.
