In the 2020 – 2021 fiscal, Chola had pledged to support the surgical heart procedures for these children whose ages ranged from newborn up to 18 years with a total outlay of Rs 120 lakhs.

As part of the arrangement, Sri Sathya Sai Sanjeevani Hospitals located in Raipur (Chhattisgarh), Palwal (Haryana) and Kharghar (Maharashtra) provide world-class paediatric cardiac care for the children of road transport staff free.

Speaking on the partnership with Chola, Dr Subramanian Chellappan, Director, Sri Sathya Sai Sanjeevani Hospital (Palwal, Haryana) said, “During the COVID Pandemic, children suffering from congenital heart disease (CHD) were vulnerable to both COVID and CHD. While this treatment was unavailable in both Private and Govt Hospitals during the Pandemic, Sai Sanjeevani Hospitals continued to offer these life-saving surgeries with COVID protocols. We value our partnership with Chola who supported children of the trucking community with CHD, in these critical times. From 2019 till Sept 2021, Chola has given new life to over 150 children whose families have been uplifted financially, socially and emotionally.”
