For most families, childhood is filled with running, playing and dreams for the future. But for 13-year-old Samanvith and 9-year-old Mokshith, childhood has become a daily battle against a life-threatening genetic disorder—Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD).
Their mother still remembers the day she first noticed something unusual in her elder son. When Samanvith was 7, he began falling often and struggled to keep up with other children. After multiple tests, the diagnosis shattered their world.
“When the doctor said ‘Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy,’ I didn’t understand. But when he explained that my son’s muscles will keep getting weaker… I felt the ground slip from under my feet,” their mother recalls.
Over the years, DMD has stolen Samanvith’s ability to walk. Today, at just 13, he is completely dependent on a wheelchair and sometimes requires BiPAP support to breathe comfortably.
His younger brother Mokshith, just 9 years old, has the same cruel condition. He can still walk, but climbing stairs has become almost impossible. The family lives in constant fear of how fast the disease might progress.
The boys continue their schooling—8th grade and 4th grade—but every day is a difficult one. Their mother watches helplessly as their muscles weaken while trying to hold on to a normal routine.
With the doctors recommending Exon Skipping (Eteplirsen treatment) as the next line of therapy, hope has finally resurfaced. But this specialised treatment is extremely expensive and requires continued medical support.
The family’s financial condition is fragile.
Their mother works as a tailor, earning just ₹8,000 a month. She is the only earning member ever since the boys’ father passed away from COVID four years ago.
“After my husband died, I told myself I had to be strong for my children. But now, with both of them sick… I don’t know how to fight this alone,” she says, her voice breaking.
Travelling 200 km to the hospital for consultations and check-ups is another burden—physically, financially and emotionally.
Still, she does everything she can. She stays awake at night adjusting BiPAP for Samanvith, holding Mokshith as he tries to climb even a small step, and silently wiping her tears so her children don’t see her fear.
“My sons dream of becoming engineers… of growing up. I just want them to have a future. Please help me keep them alive,” she pleads.
With timely support, both brothers can receive the treatment they desperately need to slow the progression of DMD.
Your kindness can give this mother the strength she has been searching for—and give her children a fighting chance at life.

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.
