Never worry about the numbers. Help one person at a time and always start with the person nearest you.

Who we are
100% of your donations goes towards children's Heart Surgeries
Bloom to Life is a US-based humanitarian organization formed in July 2015 to save the lives of young children from India with Congenital Heart Disease (CHD). Financial assistance will be provided to the underprivileged children and their parents who don’t have the resources to pay for their child’s Heart surgery.
Bloom To Life has the Platinum Seal of Transparency which is the highest level of recognition offered by Candid, the world's largest source of nonprofit information.
What we aim to solve.
- Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the world’s most common major birth defect, affecting one in every 120 children. In India, up to 270,000 infants (age <1 year) are born with CHDs yearly. Unfortunately, most children living with CHDs in the poorer regions of India escape detection and diagnosis.
- The heart is the center of the universe in the human body. No human body can function without a HEART. Heart surgeries carry a much higher risk than any other operation. There is always a risk to life. Without the operation, they will not survive. Pediatric cardiac heart surgeries are extremely complex.
- Cardiac surgery in a child's heart is a major event in the child's life and the entire family. They will never forget the doctors & the people who helped with the surgery. The events happening in the family are always described in the future as Before the Heart operation & After the Heart operation.
- Bloom To Life has tied up with the best hospitals and top Pediatric Cardiology surgeons in India to do heart surgeries. Most of our surgeries are done in hospitals like AIMS, Apollo, NH & MIOT. Since 2015 we have helped sponsor 55+ Pediatric Heart surgeries for underprivileged children.
