Partner with us
Care reaches further when we carry it together.
Hospitals, companies, colleges and local bodies can each do something a single organisation cannot. Here is how to join in.
Why partner
Home care is a community effort.
A home visit needs a nurse, a volunteer, a vehicle, medicines and a family who knows we exist. No single organisation supplies all of that. Kerala’s palliative care movement has always been carried by hospitals, panchayats, clubs and ordinary neighbours working together, and Thuna works the same way.
Every partnership is shaped around what you can offer and what families near you need. Some partners give money. Others give time, referrals, equipment or a hall for training. All of it reaches a home.
Free
Care costs families nothing. Partners make that possible.
At home
Visits happen where the person lives, not in a ward.
Reported
Every partner gets a plain report on what their support did.
Local
Teams are built ward by ward, with people who live there.
Ways to partner
Six ways to stand beside a family.
Pick the one that fits you, or tell us about something we have not thought of.
Referral partners
Hospitals and clinics
Refer patients who would benefit from comfort-focused care at home. Our nurses coordinate with your team so medicines and care plans stay consistent after discharge.
Funding partners
Companies and CSR
Fund a home-care team for a month, a year of medicines for a panchayat, or a caregiver training programme. We report back with plain numbers and real stories.
Volunteer partners
Colleges, clubs and associations
Send a group for orientation and training. Students, residents’ associations and service clubs form some of our most reliable home-visit teams.
In-kind partners
Pharmacies and suppliers
Medicines, dressings, air mattresses, wheelchairs and hospital beds on loan. Practical goods change a family’s week more than most people expect.
Community partners
Local government and panchayats
Help us reach every ward. Ward members and ASHA workers are often the first to know which household needs a visit.
Awareness partners
Media and creators
Help more families learn that palliative care exists and that it is free. Our brand kit has logos, posters and photos you can use as they are.
How it starts
Three steps, no paperwork to begin.
Write to us
Tell us who you are and what you have in mind. A sentence or two is enough to start.
A short conversation
We meet, in person or on a call, to understand what would help most and what you can offer.
A simple agreement
We agree on scope, timeline and how we will report back. Then the work begins.

The practical details.
Is Thuna Foundation a registered non-profit?
Thuna Foundation was inaugurated on 13 September 2026 and home visits are under way. Formal registration, along with tax-exemption paperwork, is in progress. We will share the documents with partners as soon as they are issued. Write to hello@thunafoundation.org for the current status.
Can our company fund a specific programme?
Yes. Partners can support a named home-care team, a supply of medicines and equipment, or a caregiver training programme. We agree on the scope in writing and report on it.
How do you report on the use of funds?
Each partner receives a plain-language report at agreed intervals: the number of families visited, what the money paid for, and what changed for them. Photographs and stories are shared only with family consent.
Can our staff volunteer as a team?
Yes. We run orientation and a short training for groups. Teams then join home visits on a regular schedule with an experienced volunteer or nurse.
Can we use the Thuna logo in our own materials?
Partners can use the wordmark and poster templates from the brand page as provided, without changing colours or proportions. For co-branded materials, send us a draft before printing.
Care beyond cure
