Cancer crowdfunding is very common. Medical crowdfunding is the single largest reason why people take to online fundraising. However, even within medical crowdfunding, cancer crowdfunding takes precedence over others. As cancer continues to be a steady killer, no one effective cure for cancer is ready. Treatment is expensive with many people completely unable to access it. Even detecting cancer can be expensive. A person detected with cancer does not only has to worry about his/her illness, but about arranging for the finances required for the treatment.
Moreover, even in countries with better healthcare systems like Britain, the NHS does not provide for newly emergent treatment of cancer. Therefore, people have increasingly taken to crowdfunding to fund their treatment privately. The trend continues to dominate in third world countries like India where medical crowdfunding is experiencing a boom, owing to the poor state of government healthcare. Fundraising India is the only option left for those living with cancer.
Hodgkin’s Lymphoma is one of the many cancers affecting human beings. Put simply, it affects the lymphatic system which is deeply connected to the immune system. People between the ages of 20 to 40 and above 55 are likely to get this cancer. Hodgkin’s Lymphoma is not the only kind of cancer that can affect the lymphatic system. Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma is a far more common cancer of the lymphatic system than Hodgkin’s Lymphoma.
If there is any painless lump in the lymph nodes of your neck, you should immediately go see your doctor. If there is any fever, weakness and sensitivity to alcohol experienced by you along with this, you should see your doctor too. More sophisticated detection and treatment techniques have resulted in better prognosis and recovery options. But this does not mean that any of these things come cheap. Hence, there is a severe need for crowdfunding.
There is no end to the number of fundraising sites that offer medical crowdfunding. However, you should choose one that suits your needs Remember that when it comes to fundraising India, cheap is not always the best. You need a name that can give you credibility, a website that will verify your campaign and work with you sensitively. Fundraising websites India should have outreach on social media, credibility and international outreach. Not all websites that offer to do your fundraising for free have this. Therefore, if you are looking for a good fundraising site, you might want to check out the paid campaigns. These also bring with them a manager. If you, or your loved one is ill, your manager can be of a lot of help. Aside from these, there are other factors you should keep in mind. Remember to always have a back up team when you start crowdfunding.
Your back up team will keep you posted about your campaign when you are busy at the hospital or not available for some other reason (this applies to NGO fundraising too). The other important thing to remember is that you should write your fundraiser lucidly and if possible with photographs. If you can, you should incorporate a video with an appeal. This adds credibility to your fundraiser. It also caters to the emotional side of your donors as donations-based crowdfunding is essentially about giving.
If you are looking for a safe, effective way to raise money online, you should look at crowdfunding as a way out of your difficulties. It is risk free and does not involve any investment in terms of money. If you or your loved one have been diagnosed with cancer, it is imperative that you concern yourself about getting well and not money. Remember that the crowd always has your back.
