The main goal or purpose of the project is to encourage children of kidney patient’s to be educated and succeed in life.

Target Beneficiaries

Recent observations has found that majority of patients affected by kidney disease is the main income source of the family. When these people become victims of chronic kidney disease, their income streams get affected as they find it difficult to work to earn a living. It is obvious that there is a negative impact on their children’s education  and also effects the family psychological, economically and financially, with arising daily life expenses. When a person’s kidneys fail, the person will no more be normal, that person will face lots of changes in his or her life style. A kidney patient, before and after a transplantation  surgery, will have to take care of him or herself, consume medicines for the rest of the life, and will have to move on from his or her busy life style, as a kidney patient cannot do tiresome work to earn a living. Most of the people with failed kidney function will lose their occupation as they cannot exhaust their body and be active like other people, then their family has no income, but the life expenses will be increased day by day. This will directly effect to children in families with kidney patients, their education will have a negative impact from kidney disease. Due to mental and financial problem some children of such families tend to give up on education and they focus on earning to support the families, at small ages.
