No baby should be lost to something preventable.

Newborn lives are tragically lost across India because essential, affordable NICU care fails to reach them in time. At the Neonates Foundation of India, we believe every critically ill newborn, regardless of their family’s means, has the fundamental right to survive and thrive. We close the gap created by distance and cost, providing immediate, quality NICU care so that no family is ever forced to give up hope on their little one.

That’s why we:

  • Fund life-saving NICU treatment for babies in need.
  • Partner with hospitals to expand quality neonatal care across underserved areas.
  • Support families with emotional care and help them navigate their baby’s journey beyond the NICU.
  • Restore futures, heal families, and uplift communities.
