    Project


    Children affected by rare condition , thalassemia , HIV loose more than their health, they lose their childhoods too. Instead of playing with their friends, they are confined to hospitals and rounds of exhausting treatments. Their families are mired in anxiety, often resulting in financial problems and endless travel for good medical care. 


    Many of these children come from families in which the parents have a meagre income. While many of them are from Mumbai and surrounding areas, there are a few who're from rural backgrounds and have to travel to major urban centres in order to get proper medical treatment. Hospitals in rural areas are often not equipped to deal with the specialised and prolonged treatment needed for rare condition, HIV, and Thalassemia. This places an enormous financial burden on families, where some have no choice but to sell their land and valuables in order to afford the treatment and duration of stay needed.

    Currently, Mansi Shah takes care of over 350+ children who have life-threatening diseases like Rare Condition, HIV, and Thalassemia.


    Happy Feet Home is a haven for these children and their families. Based out of Sion, Mumbai, Happy Feet Home is a palliative care centre for sick children where they are provided with psycho-social, educational, nutritional support. The children and their families are counselled here, provided guidance on navigating the medical system, and are given the support they need to stay physically and mentally strong. Happy Feet Home also conducts events and activities inside Sion Hospital. They also provide end-of-life care for children with no hope of recovery along with emotional support for their families dealing with this devastation.

    Happy Feet Home is not a place for dying people. It is a place to celebrate life and fill happiness in the lives of these young ones,” says Mansi.



    As the pandemic rages on, these children are at very high risk for additional sickness. Their illnesses and the treatment for them leave the child very weak with a poor immune system. In this scenario, it is vitally important to maintain nutritional care in order to keep the body strong. Their families are struggling to make this happen and Happy Feet Home has stepped in to provide food to around 350 kids each month.


    They are now asking for your help to provide groceries to these 350 kids and more. With your donation, they can ensure that these sick children and their poor families are nutritionally safe and secure in order to continue their treatments and have a chance for a better, healthier life. Donate now and help a sick child!
