We wish to convey our sincere thanks to our regular donor Mr. B.S. Bhullar who has donated rupees twenty one lac on 06.09.18 for the poor and needy patients. The other major donors were Vardhaman Group who donated rupees 25 lacs this year and Harbans Kaur who donated rupees 10 lac on the Institute’s Foundation Day. Last year also Vardhaman Group had donated rupees 25 lacs. Such gestures of benevolence by the philanthropists go a long way in benefitting the poor ailing humanity.
The donations are accepted either through cheque (in favour of Director PGIMER) or cash at the poor patient cell near the Main Reception, Nehru Hospital under section 80G of the income tax act. We appeal to the public to generously donate for this fund so that we are able to save the poor patients by providing them super speciality health care. PGI is also going to start online donations soon. Following is the data of PPWF for the last two financial years:
