Thank you everyone who volunteered to offer unused medicines to needy ones. We are proud to say that we tried our best to keep this running without any funding and financial support. And least to say there were challenges in terms of regulations, certifications, licences, threats and operational cost (least significant).

Never thought working for Noble "not for profit" can be this complex.

We feel sad to say that we are closing down. We will come back stronger and better next time.

Keep donating...not just medicines.

The numbers of hospitals in India are significantly less in comparison to the number of people requiring healthcare services in the country. In a country where both medical infrastructure as well as medical manpower is scarce, the gap between demand and supply can be bridged with technology. Communication technology, particularly telemedicine, can act as a missing link connecting rural and urban India— resulting in more people availing better healthcare services.

In what could be one of the biggest setbacks for India’s tuberculosis control programme, there is a massive stock-out of anti-TB drugs across the nation.

Every year, 18 lakh patients need treatment for TB along with 1 lakh multi drug-resistant TB cases. However, the Central government will exhaust its inventory of drugs by July end. This means patients run the risk of either developing drug-resistant TB or losing their lives.

Across the nation, in almost every State, there is limited supply of drugs like Rifampicin and Isoniazid, the first line drugs used to treat TB. A senior Union Health Ministry official, who declined to be quoted, said that the situation is critical. Paediatric drugs have already run out and children were not being able to avail of the treatment in the public sector. Many are being turned away from centres.

Ironically, India is among the largest producers of anti-TB drugs globally. But at home, patients are struggling to obtain medicines. In a letter addressed to Ghulam Nabi Azad, the Union Health Minister, T. K. Ray of Voice of Patient, an organization representing TB patients, said: “[A] large number of patients being treated under the public health system are being deprived of the full course of proper treatment. Around 3,00,000 re-treatment cases, about 90,000 child TB cases and about 5,000 multi-drug resistant TB patients are not being treated according to existing protocols due to shortage of drugs at hospitals, State and district stores in the last one year. There has been no or very erratic supply of many drugs, both first and second line to the States.”-- source the hindu.

"Let us be the ones who say we do not accept that a child dies every three seconds simply because he does not have the drugs you and I have. Let us be the ones to say we are not satisfied that your place of birth determines your right for life. Let us be outraged, let us be loud, let us be bold.”
