For most parents, the birth of a first child is a moment of pure joy. But for Kalka Bhagawan Jagdale, a farmer from Nanded, Maharashtra, that joy has been replaced by endless nights of fear and despair. After two years of marriage, Kalka and his wife were finally blessed with a baby boy on 8th August 2025. Born through C-section, the little one weighed just 2.14 kg, far below the healthy weight for a newborn.
Their happiness was short-lived. Within days, the baby developed serious complications. Doctors diagnosed him with Respiratory Distress Syndrome (RDS) and neonatal seizures. His tiny body could not cope, and on 5th September, at just four weeks old, he had to undergo a major intestinal surgery. Since then, he has been fighting for his life in the NICU at Rainbow Hospital.
Today at Rainbow Children’s Hospital, the baby weighs only 1.5 kg and survives with the help of oxygen support. His condition is so fragile that doctors have advised at least 2–3 more weeks of NICU care before he can be considered stable. Every day in the NICU is critical, and every day brings new expenses that the family cannot bear.
As if this ordeal were not enough, the baby’s mother is also unwell. She is unable to look after her newborn and herself at the same time, leaving the father to shoulder the unbearable burden alone. Kalka works hard on his farm and earns about 2.5 lakhs a year, but this is nowhere near enough to cover the mounting hospital bills. With no income certificate attached, he cannot even seek government support.
This is the couple’s first child — their long-awaited blessing. But instead of holding their son close, they must watch him struggle for every breath, surrounded by machines and tubes. Kalka prays not just for his baby’s survival, but also for his wife’s recovery. He dreams of the day when both mother and child return home healthy and safe.
Your support can make that dream come true. By contributing, you can help this newborn survive, ease the family’s financial burden, and give hope to parents who are living their worst nightmare.

You need not wait for donor or have the organ ready. We actually suggest you start a fundraiser as soon as you can so that you are ready with the acquired funds and can get the surgery done immediately when you do receive an organ.
Generally, most campaigners are reminded to leave updates on their fundraiser regarding the progress of their cause, whether it’s a nonprofit project or the health of a patient. You will get an email every time an update is posted. Alternately, you can use the "Contact campaigner" option on the fundraiser page to directly get in touch with the campaigner and understand how your donation benefited them.
Once the requirement of this patient will be met, any remaining funds will ultimately go towards helping other needy patients in line with Impact Guru's mission of helping save as many lives as possible.
For all medical fundraisers, the funds will be directly transferred to the hospital’s account. Only in a few cases, based on Impact Guru’s discretion, the funds might be transferred to the campaigner or the patient’s account for postoperative or at home expenses.
In cases, where the funding requirement of the patient changes due to factors such as death, change of treatment plan on advice of hospital, delay in treatment, medical complications, Impact Guru utilizes the funds to help similar patients with the mission of helping save as many lives as possible.
90%+ of Impact Guru’s campaigns raise funds leveraging our do-it-yourself fundraising platform.
The Accelerate initiative of Impact Guru caters primarily towards those individuals who are unable to create or manage their own fundraiser due to lack of education, access to smartphones, or social networks for fundraising support. Impact Guru provides fundraising support in such cases by maximizing outreach, leveraging all fundraising channels. In order to provide crucial life saving support to such patients, Impact Guru charges marketing cost paid to such third parties and its regular platform and payment gateway fees. Impact Guru's constant endeavour is to reduce such outreach costs to maximize social impact of every contribution.

We communicate with the patient / campaigner / hospital(s) and/or medical institutions and may verify & collect all documents related to the patient, including but not limited to itemized bills, medical certificate / estimate, admission report, discharge summary, medical records, and expense documents.
We reserve the right to conduct physical visits and/or photo/ video verification as deemed necessary. Such verification measures may apply not only to patients but also to vendors, medical institutions, and other relevant parties, as applicable.
