DESCRIPTION :

Sassoon General Hospital is a large state-run hospital in Pune¸ India with over 1500 beds. The B. J. Medical College and a Nurses training School is attached to it.

The Jewish philanthropist David Sassoon from Mumbai made a generous donation to make the construction of the hospital possible in 1867. The hospital could originally accommodate 144 patients. A well-respected child-care center and orphanage¸ Society of Friends of Sassoon Hospitals (SOFOSH)¸ is connected to the hospital.

SOFOSH was started in August 1964 by a group of Pune citizens for the welfare of poor patients of Sassoon Hospitals. Child care activities were initiated in 1973. SOFOSH?s child care center¸ Shreevatsa¸ has provided a home to orphan children ranging from newborns to six-year-olds.

Many of the children are placed with adoptive families in India and overseas. A number of children are physically and mentally challenged and a growing number are afflicted by life threatening ailments. Many of these children will never find adoptive families¸ and are cared for by the SOFOSH "Preetanjali" project.""
