Building Hope: Free Housing for Low-Income Patients in Need

Hello! We are Revive to Survive, a Houston-based non-profit dedicated to raising funds for projects that provide essential medicines, medical supplies, equipment, and other necessities to institutions both in Houston and around the world.

This Project

Every day, thousands of patients across Sri Lanka travel long distances to receive care at government-funded cancer units. Many embark on journeys that take an entire day or even multiple days to reach these hospitals. Once they arrive, they must stay nearby for treatment—often for a week or more.

Karapitiya Hospital, located in the Southern Province, is one such facility, but it currently lacks adequate accommodation options. The few available are neither financially accessible nor practical for the majority of patients.

Sapu Nikethana aims to address this critical need by providing subsidized housing for patients undergoing treatment at Karapitiya Hospital in Galle.

The first phase of construction is already complete, and Revive to Survive is partnering with The Cancer Care Association of Sri Lanka to raise the remaining funds necessary to turn Sapu Nikethana into a reality.

The Cancer Care Association of Sri Lanka, a registered non-governmental organization and approved charity (Reg. No: L147405).

Our History

Our journey began with a mission to fundraise for a critical, life-saving cancer drug for patients in Sri Lanka. Since then, we have successfully supported a variety of medical projects in both Sri Lanka and Houston, including the distribution of COVID-19 test kits in Sri Lanka and various facility upgrades and supplies in both regions.

Our goal is to identify institutions engaged in life-saving work and assist them in fundraising for impactful projects that support patients—many of whom are low-income and in dire need—across the globe.

Together, we can make a difference in the lives of those who need it most.

We are a 100% volunteer-based, so 100% of your donation goes to making impact!
