Who Are We?

Bridging the Gap Between Treatment and Affordability

Any Body Can Donate is a charitable organisation working primarily with the Pediatrics department of Government Medical College & Hospital (GMCH-32), Chandigarh.

While the hospital provides essential treatment, some children and their families face difficulty affording prescribed medicines, diagnostic tests that are unavailable at the hospital, or critical medical equipment. ABCD helps bridge this financial gap through a community-powered network of doctors, contributors, ABCD members and pharmacy partners.

What We Do

Support That Goes Directly Toward Treatment

ABCD does not provide cash to patients. Every contribution is linked to an identified medical need.

Medicines

We support prescribed medicines for children whose families cannot afford the cost — generally contributing part of the bill and, where required, the full cost.

Diagnostic Tests

We sponsor diagnostic tests that are unavailable at GMCH and need to be performed externally when families cannot afford them.

Medical Equipment

We support essential medical equipment required for timely treatment — including oxygen cylinders, ventilators and NICU-related critical equipment.

Stories of Hope

Real Lives, Changed by Your Support

A look at a few of the many ways our donors and volunteers have made a lasting difference across communities.

Sponsoring Children's Education

When schools reached out about children at risk of dropping out, ABCD stepped in to support their education year after year until their schooling was completed.

Education

Essential Equipment for Newborns

Newborn babies need heating equipment immediately after birth. ABCD provided 9 devices to help the hospital protect the most vulnerable newborns.

Healthcare

Warmth for Children at an Orphanage

On cold nights some children had no blankets or quilts. ABCD provided stationery, bags, quilts and other essentials based on each child's needs.

Children's Welfare

When a Family Was Losing Hope

When the cost of a child's medicines became overwhelming, ABCD assured the family support — helping them continue caring for their child.
