them, counseling the children’s parents and helping
them cope with the trying circumstances during the child’s
treatment and recovery.
KKF undertakes activities
to help afflicted children and their parents to utilize
their time constructively:
KARUNA NAVNEET LIBRARY
provides books for children and their parents during
hospitalization.
KARUNA TOYS LIBRARY
has a collection of toys for children aged 2 to 14 years.
The collection includes educational and learning toys,
electronic and battery operated toys, fun games, etc.
ENTERTAINMENT: Once
in a week movies are screened for the child patients.
CELEBRATIONS: Festivals
like Raksha Bandhan, Diwali and New Year and individual
birthdays are celebrated by organizing various competitions
and games and distributing gifts and snacks.
“PROTEIN PRO” PROGRAM:
“Protein Pro” is a nutritious supplement
for cancer patients.
The poor child patients cannot afford
the costly protein supplements available in the market.
This program aims to provide the needy patients with
their daily need of adequate protein, minerals and vitamins
in the natural formulation free of cost. |
