TPAF - enabling liver care for children

The Pravin Agarwal Foundation (TPAF) was founded by Pravin Agarwal in 2016 with the mission to support families whose children are in need of a liver transplant in India.

92% children in need of a liver transplant do not receive it, despite transplant costs in India being among the lowest in the world.

Approximately 3,000 children in India require liver transplants annually, but only 10% receive the necessary treatment. A significant barrier to this access is the prohibitive cost of liver transplants, resulting in many children suffering from terminal liver diseases. Timely diagnosis and treatment for liver transplant procedures could reduce 10-15% of fatalities attributed to such conditions. Addressing this issue necessitates systemic reforms, support for affected families, and improved access to financial assistance.

As of 2023, TPAF’s support has extended to over 500+ transplants and continues to grow. We collaborate with Medical fraternity, hospitals, and crowd funding platforms to assist children in need of liver transplants.
