Swaasthya hospital

Swaasthya for the Poor

Conceived by well-known living yogi and spiritual leader, SriM, Bangalore will soon have a hospital to serve the serve city’s poor patients. Nearly 300,000 people in Bangalore, the country’s technology and healthcare hub, have no realistic access to quality healthcare. A large number of these people suffer from serious diseases and may die for want of the right care. Swaasthya is a mission to avert this massive human tragedy. This not-for-profit hospital will be run by Dr NK Venkataramana purely as a social initiative with a team of dedicated hospital. However, for this hospital to become a reality, it needs help in the form of generous contributions.
