Sachin Tendulkar has been a regular supporting social causes post retirement.
Attending an awareness campaign on 'Prevention of Cardiac Disease in Children', he announced a donation of 10 lakh rupees for a ventilator at Nowrosjee Wadia hospital for children.
"I generally don't make such public announcements but me and my wife would like to donate 10 lakhs to sponsor a ventilator here," he announced.
Sachin chose the Wadia hospital cardiac awareness program over a music launch function he was slated to attend. Sachin later shared that his wife Anjali's mentor Dr.Ambdekar was a medical director at the same hospital.
"What Sir Achrekar is to me, Dr. Ambdekar is to Anjali," he said. Anjali Tendulkar was a doctor by profession until she wed Sachin and decided to focus on duties at home while her husband was away breaking records on the cricket field.
Sachin also urged one and all to contribute to such causes narrating a personal encounter that touched his heart. "I got numb when I met a girl in one of the wards here. She had no money earlier. But now when she has money, nothing can be done. As parent it is difficult to accept you will soon lose your child," he said.
A marathon race will also be held on 9th of February to support the cause.
