Every child suffering from cancer, irrespective of economic status, deserves to get the best chance of surviving the disease and leading a full, healthy, happy life. St. Judes provides this chance through its well-established model of cost-free, holistic care during the period of the child's treatment. In major cities of India where low cost cancer treatment is available, children who need treatment for cancer and their parents come to hospitals from distant towns and villages. The hospitals do not treat them as in-patients during the long drawn out treatment and these needy families do not have a place to stay whenever the child is not admitted to hospital. Hence, St Judes provides these families with free of cost: 1) Safe & Hygienic Housing 2) Cooking facilities and Nutrition 3) Transport to and from the hospital 4) Counselling for children and parents 5) Educational and recreational activities 6) Art-based therapy, music therapy and yoga St. Jude India ChildCare Centres has a pan-India presence and currently runs 38 Centres in 9 cities. The organisation is accredited as a GiveIndia Tier 1 Organisation, is rated "VO 1A” by CRISIL (An S&P company) and is also an empanelled partner of the National CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) Hub.
