Founder
V Care Foundation, India
It has been three decades that V Care Foundation began its work in the field of cancer care. Started by a cancer survivor, Mrs. Vandana Gupta after her own cancer treatment. V Care believes in empowering cancer patients with care from chaos to control. Our organisation was founded on the principle of providing emotional assistance. Patients are supported by V Care both during active treatment and afterward through variety of patient interventions. In the last FY has been able to support more than 318.872 (in lakhs) patients under our different patient care programs.
Vandana is on the ethics committee for Breach Candy Hospital and Indian Cancer Society. She has played key role in bringing global exposure and represents V Care through affiliations with American Cancer Society, International Kidney Cancer Coalition, Lymphoma Coalition, UICC. She is on the Board of SPAEN (Sarcoma Patients EuroNet).
In the cancer care, the most passionate thing is that you get to know so many strong people who are holding on to each other while sailing the same boat so that they can help and cling to each other when they feel they are drowning. That feeling pushes one to do so much more for them and work along with them to cater to their needs.
For Vandana, every step is a new learning even after 30 years in cancer care
