ANVPP Medical Trust

Dance for a social cause

Archana Nrityalaya and Vaidyakiya Pratishthan Pune — a registered medical trust that turns performances into help for patients fighting heart, kidney disease and cancer.

What we do

Help where it matters most

Founded by Guru Archana Patwardhan in 2004 (Reg. no. 4113), ANVPP funds treatment for heart, kidney and cancer patients, distributed each year at the institute's annual gathering — alongside partners like the Cipla Foundation and Dinanath Mangeshkar Hospital. In the Silver Jubilee year, a single evening funded dialysis for ten patients.

Every donation carries a 50% tax exemption under Section 80G, with certificates issued to all donors.

On the ground

From one evening to a patient's treatment

  1. The gathering

    Every student of the Nrityalaya performs, once a year, on one stage.

  2. The proceeds

    What the evening raises goes to the trust in full — it is run by volunteers and the institute’s own family.

  3. The same evening

    Cheques are handed to patients on that stage, in front of the audience that funded them.

  4. The treatment

    Heart, kidney and cancer care, with partners including the Cipla Foundation and Dinanath Mangeshkar Hospital.
