Lisath is nearly five and suffering from a genetic condition called Thalassemia. This condition causes the body to make an abnormal form of hemoglobin (the oxygen-carrying protein in red blood cells.) The disorder results in large numbers of red blood cells being destroyed, leading to anemia. There is no permanent solution to Thalassemia besides a Bone Marrow Transplant.
Lisath is an only child and his young mother is doing everything she can on her own to care for him and cover costs, because Lisath’s father left them due to his health issues. His mother Erandhika is only 31 years old and doing her best to keep her child alive, so that she can give him a fresh start to enable him to live his dream. Erandhika is a teacher at Vijayapala Maha Widyalaya Mathale.
How you can help
Lisath is undergoing donor matching tests but has not yet found a match for his bone marrow transplant. Hence why his doctors and mother are looking at doing the BMT in Bangalore. They need Rs. 3 million for this operation in India. We hope to raise this amount thought charity apple. All proceeds raised will be going towards lisath's BMT.
100% of your donations will go towards Lisath’s medical expenses.
We are committed to complete transparency and accountability.
Because we're committed to using 100% of every rupee donated to fund people in need, we rely on small optional donations from people like you to help cover our operating expenses.
By donating to our operations, you're investing in our long-term mission by helping us pay for things like credit card processing fees, supplies, staff, travelling and other operational costs.
Thanks for helping us keep the lights on!
