I remember the day I found out I was going to be a mother. I prayed for this moment, for the joy of holding my child in my arms, and when Gagan was born, I couldn’t have been happier. He was everything I had hoped for — a little bundle of energy, always smiling, always laughing. His joy was contagious, and wherever he went, the room seemed brighter, full of life.
But then, everything changed.
It started with something small — Gagan wasn’t feeling well. He complained of stomach pain, and we thought it was nothing. But soon, it became clear that something was terribly wrong. When the doctors told us it was cancer, I didn’t know how to breathe. How could this be happening? My little boy, just four years old, battling an illness no child should ever face. I felt like my whole world was crashing down.
For the past four years, I’ve done nothing but fight for Gagan’s health. My husband, Suresh, and I work as much as we can — he drives an auto and works at a petrol pump. But no matter how hard we worked, no matter how much we tried to save, it was never enough. We sold our land. We sold our house. And still, the bills kept coming. The chemotherapy. The tests. The medications.
Every day, I watch my son go through something no child should ever have to endure. He’s only four, yet he’s in pain every day, getting injections in every part of his little body. I can’t bear to see him like this. Gagan should be running around, playing with his friends, learning to read and write. But instead, he’s fighting for his life, and I can do nothing but watch.
Some days, it feels like the world has forgotten us. We’ve spent everything. There’s nothing left.
I’ve done everything I can for my son, but now I’m asking for help. I’m asking for others to do what I cannot. Gagan is my everything, and I just want him to have a future. A future where he can go to school, where he can play, where he can grow up happy and healthy. Please, I beg you, help save my son. No child should have to go through this, and no mother should have to watch her child suffer like this.
I know you also have children, and I know you can feel my pain. Please, I need your help. My son needs your help. Without it, I don’t know how much longer he can fight. But if you help us, you can give him the chance to survive. You can give him the chance for a future — a future free of cancer, a future full of life.
Please, help us. For Gagan. For all of us.

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.
If you have more questions or need assistance to start a fundraiser, you can send us an email at [email protected]
We strive to obtain comprehensive documentation related to the patient's medical care and expenses. 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.
