The Need

With little awareness about the symptoms and the available treatment options, children from socio-economic backgrounds and rural areas face difficulty fighting these disorders.

Against this backdrop, Happy Kids Foundation and similar initiatives play a vital role to enable these children get access to the right treatment, medication, facilities & other required help. Education & Family counselling acts as pillars of conquering these disorders.
