01 — Who we are
“No family should have to choose between treatment and a roof overhead. We build the bridge — a clean bed, a warm meal, a ride to the hospital, a kind word — so they can focus on what matters: their child's life.”
Access Life Assistance Foundation is an Indian NGO providing
a loving and temporary home for the parent or caretaker and
the child undergoing cancer treatment. Our mission is to offer
a home-like environment for these families.
We improve the quality of life of these children by providing
practical support services, educational resources and
recreational programs — all free of cost, across our centres in
Mumbai, Hyderabad and beyond.
