Together, we can
The Sarala Bathena Foundation was started in memory of our dear Sarala, a beloved wife and cherished mother who lost her battle with cancer. It is because of her spirit and generosity that our goal is and has always been to contribute in any way possible for a better tomorrow.

Our Mission

The Sarala Bathena Foundation's mission has two main goals: Education & Healthcare for Underprivileged Individuals​
-
Education: We wish to provide assistance and aid in receiving direct access to education to underprivileged children. They deserve a chance to change their lives.​
-
Healthcare: We wish to educate and create awareness to prevent life threatening diseases. We are establishing screening opportunities specializing in early detection of cancers to save lives. This is reaching the rural population living in poverty. ​​​
