Billion Hearts Beating Foundation is a not-for-profit organization that serves the most neglected healthcare needs of citizens, supporting those who may not have access to quality care, medicines, and medical knowledge. It works on the bedrock of empathy, dignity, and respect, focusing on prevention and preparedness.
An active and healthy person is key for the development of any society. Our projects are based on this belief, and on the realization that access to healthcare is often not equitable. Explore our projects to understand how Billion Hearts Beating Foundation is working towards building a healthier India.
Billion Hearts Beating Foundation is a not-for-profit organization founded in April 2010 by Apollo Hospitals, with the objective of providing healthcare and health awareness across India.
The foundation is registered in India, under the section 12A and is covered under the Income Tax Act of 80G which allows 50% exemption to donors. It has also acquired the FCRA certificate which accepts foreign donations.
Prevention and preparedness are fundamental to our existence. We work towards the welfare of seniors in care homes, offer lifesaving training programmes to those who work in public life, and provide medical reinforcement in case of natural disasters or emergency situations. Our aim is to focus on preserving life and rendering the best possible quality of life through medical care.
