KATHMANDU, DECEMBER 10
The Ramesh Gupta Memorial Trust (RGMT), in partnership with Mahalaxmi Development Bank, has donated electric ICU beds to Bhaktapur Cancer Hospital, expanding its pediatric ICU capacity to 15 beds.
The initiative supports ongoing national efforts to strengthen childhood cancer care, in collaboration with global partner World Child Cancer.
The Trust is equipping shared care centres across all seven provinces to decentralize services and reduce the burden on families traveling to Kathmandu, according to the press release issued by the trust
The Trust said its 360-degree support model includes medical training, improved diagnostics, treatment assistance and emotional and financial support for families.
According to the Trust, improving outcomes for children with cancer in Nepal requires collaboration, investment, and long-term vision. Its ongoing work reflects a dedication to building a system where every child, regardless of where they live, can access high-quality cancer care and have a fair chance to survive and thrive.
The donation to Bhaktapur Cancer Hospital stands as another step toward that vision, reinforcing the belief that collective action can create meaningful impact for Nepal's youngest and most vulnerable patients.
