About us

Our story and mission

Dhanvantari Cancer Foundation was born from a simple belief: no cancer patient should face this journey alone or give up treatment due to lack of money.

Our mission

To provide free, compassionate, and holistic support to cancer patients and their families across Andhra Pradesh and Telangana — covering financial aid, psychosocial support, palliative care, and awareness — so that no one abandons treatment due to poverty or lack of information.

Our vision

A Telugu-speaking region where every cancer patient — regardless of income, caste, or geography — has access to timely treatment, dignified care, and the emotional support to fight and survive.
