10 cancer care NGOs in India helping the poor

Cancer diagnosis is a highly stressful event, and for families living below the poverty line, the financial burden of chemotherapy, radiation, and surgeries can be catastrophic. Many patients stop treatment midway due to lack of funds. Fortunately, there are several dedicated NGOs in India stepping in to support cancer patients with free care, boarding, and psychological help.

Supportive Care and Accommodation

NGOs like the Indian Cancer Society, Cancer Patients Aid Association (CPAA), and St. Jude India ChildCare Centers provide not just funding, but safe, sterile, and free lodging for young children undergoing chemotherapy at oncology hubs. This prevents secondary infections and ensures they complete their full course of medication.
