Hare Krishna 🙏
We humbly seek your support for Mrs. Promila Sethi, a 79-year-old mother of our devotee Narottami Devi Dasi, who is battling Chronic Liver Disease (CLD) and is in urgent need of continuing medical care.
On 10th September 2026, she was brought to the Emergency Department of Guru Teg Bahadur (GTB) Hospital, Dilshad Garden, Delhi, struggling to breathe. Her oxygen saturation had fallen to 87% even on 9 litres of oxygen per minute. She was given emergency intravenous medication and oxygen support, and was referred to the Department of Medicine for continued treatment.
Her abdomen and liver have filled with fluid, and the swelling grows worse by the day. Fluid drawn from her abdomen has been examined, and tuberculosis has been ruled out by testing at the hospital's Chest Clinic. She remains under treatment with diuretics, liver medication and antibiotics, with follow-up at the Medicine OPD twice each week.
Today she is unable to walk or even reach the bathroom on her own. She has been confined to diapers, depends on a nebuliser to breathe comfortably, and relies on painkillers to get through the day and to sleep at night.
The family comes from a poor background in Shahdara, Delhi. Her daughter has been meeting the cost of medicines, nutritious food and fruit, diapers and medical supplies — roughly ₹500 to ₹1,000 every single day — entirely by taking loans. That burden has now become impossible to carry alone.
We humbly request devotees and well-wishers to come forward and extend their support. Your contribution, however small, will help this family meet the daily cost of her care and give an elderly mother the dignity and relief she deserves in her final years.
Let us come together in this difficult time and offer our support, prayers, and seva to the family.
🙏 Hare Krishna 🙏

FAQs
VaishnavaCare108 Foundation hereinafter will also be referred to as VaishnavaCart108®.
2. To provide support and care to animals in terms of food, shelter, and medicine, especially cows.
3. To provide financial support, maintenance and development of holy places and goshalas.
Apart from the Razorpay transaction fee, we also bear other overhead expenses, including website domain and hosting charges, CA (Chartered Accountant) fees, and other relevant costs. Consequently, to account for these essential expenditures and ensure the smooth functioning of our campaigns, we typically apply a deduction ranging from 1.5% to 2% per campaign.
If the beneficiary is not able to submit the bills for the entire amount collected in a particular campaign due to which some amount remains with us, then VaishnavaCart108® will utilize it for future campaigns.
The directors and volunteers working for VaishnavaCart108® do not receive any salary from the campaign funds. Instead, they provide their services voluntarily as an act of devotion. The campaign money is solely allocated to the intended beneficiaries, however a small percentage of the campaign money (1.5-2%) is deducted towards covering overhead expenses (Website & Domain maintenance charges, Chartered Accountant fees, and any other miscellaneous charges which may arise from time to time) and Payment gateway fees.
Therefore, we humbly request your understanding and patience until your campaign is scheduled for posting.
If you would like the campaign url in advance for your own circulation, we will be very happy to prepare and share them with you, which you must have also noticed as an option in the campaign posting option field while submitting campaign request. However, the official posting from our side will be done only when it is due, keeping the above considerations in mind.
We truly appreciate your cooperation and support. 🙏
Under the Income-tax Act, 1961, money received by an individual from non-relatives without consideration may be treated as taxable income under Section 56(2)(x) if the total amount exceeds ₹50,000 in a financial year. In medical emergencies, multiple well-wishers often contribute, and such receipts in a personal account can unintentionally create significant tax liability for the patient or their family.
When donations are routed through a registered NGO:
The funds are treated as charitable receipts of the organisation, not personal income of the patient.
Registered charitable entities (with valid registration under Section 12AB) can claim exemption on income applied for charitable purposes under Sections 11 and 12 of the Act.
This structure ensures proper documentation, audit trail, and utilisation of funds strictly for the stated medical purpose.
It prevents future scrutiny or disputes regarding the nature of receipts in the beneficiary’s personal tax records.
Where applicable, donors may also be eligible for tax deduction under Section 80G.
This approach safeguards the patient from unexpected tax exposure and ensures that all support reaches the intended medical use in a compliant and transparent manner.
