The Jayanti Memorial Trust has marked 25 years of providing cardiac care to patients facing financial and geographical barriers. Established in August 2001 in memory of Princess Jayanti Shah, the trust has supported over 10,000 heart surgeries in partnership with the Shahid Gangalal National Heart Centre and Manmohan Cardiothoracic Vascular and Transplant Centre.
Chairperson Srijana Rana stated that the organization has also provided medical equipment and conducted health camps in 53 districts since 2007. Beyond treatment, the trust offers heart health education, CPR training, and emergency relief.
Funding is largely supported by profits from the Fishtail Lodge in Pokhara. Looking forward, the trust plans to prioritize disease prevention, expand school-based education, and improve cardiac screening services in remote areas to ensure that no individual is denied medical treatment due to financial circumstances.
