Why this matters
Healthcare shouldn’t be a luxury
For millions of rural families, distance, cost, and missing diagnostic facilities mean treatable conditions go undetected until they turn life-threatening. These programmes offer distinct, practical ways for donors and families to change that.
The programmes
Four ways to give
Gift a Health Camp
Sponsor a free health camp in a rural area to mark a birthday, anniversary, milestone, or the memory of someone you love.
Dialysis Fund
Kidney failure forces patients into a lifelong, costly cycle of dialysis. This programme helps on three fronts: the machine, free dialysis cycles, and the medication patients need.
Mother & Child Fund
A safe pregnancy and a safe birth shape the whole of a child’s life. This fund pays for the scans and hospital deliveries underprivileged rural mothers otherwise go without.
Give for a reason
Mark an occasion with care
Celebrate differently
Turn your birthday into a health camp
Instead of gifts, ask for a village health camp in your name. One day, one community, hundreds of people who have never had a check-up.
Sponsor a camp in my nameA lasting tribute
Remember someone with a day of care
A health camp held in their name, in a village where a check-up is something most families have never had. Grief turned into protection for other people’s parents.
Hold a camp in their nameThe most direct thing you can fund
₹1,300 pays for one dialysis session
A patient in kidney failure needs twelve to sixteen sessions a month, indefinitely. Families sell land for this. One session, funded by you, is one week they do not have to.

Antarctic first · Built in India
From Delhi to Antarctica — and next, to rural India
An Indian-built tele-robotic ultrasound let doctors at AIIMS New Delhi scan a patient in Antarctica, more than 12,000 km away — a world first. Pura Foundation is the only foundation to have stepped forward, and is the sole sponsor of Experiment 2 for the next 18 months. Help us take it the rest of the way.
Before you give
The questions people ask first
Where does the money go?
Dialysis Fund money is spent only on dialysis. Camp sponsorships pay for the camp. The gateway fee is the only deduction.
See the live totals →Do I get a tax deduction?
Yes. We hold 80G approval (URN AAGTP2285AF20251), and your receipt carries it. Typically 50% of what you give is deductible.
