Infosys Foundation Supports Health Department of Karnataka to Setup 100-bed Maternity and Child Care Hospital

Infosys Foundation, the philanthropic and CSR arm of Infosys, today announced that it will construct a 100-bed maternity and child care hospital in Kunigal Taluk, Tumakuru district of Karnataka, in collaboration with the Directorate of Health and Family Welfare Services, Karnataka. Infosys Foundation will provide a grant of INR 55 crore to support the building of this hospital within the premises of the Taluk General Hospital.

This initiative aims to provide timely, holistic, quality, and affordable healthcare to the rural population in Kunigal and surrounding areas. The hospital aims to benefit approximately 30,000 mothers and children from the community every year by providing access to high-quality diagnostic, surgical, ante and post-natal services, emergency management of obstetrics, along with neonatal and paediatric services.

Previously, Infosys Foundation had supported the construction of a 100-bed maternity and child healthcare hospital in Kanakapura Taluk, Ramanagara District of Karnataka in collaboration with the Directorate of Health and Family Welfare Services, Karnataka. The Foundation had also supported the creation of a new 350-bed block for Jayadeva Hospital in Bengaluru to provide quality cardiac care to underprivileged patients.

Sri. D.K. Suresh, Member of Parliament, Bengaluru Rural, Karnataka, said, “We deeply appreciate the support from Infosys Foundation for its contribution towards strengthening Karnataka’s healthcare infrastructure. This initiative is a step towards ensuring the easy accessibility of affordable and quality healthcare for mothers and children, and future generations of Kunigal Taluk.”
