Bangalore/IBNS: To overcome severe deficiency and shortage of oxygen for patients in crisis, Canadian International School, Bangalore (CIS) in association with the Entrepreneur’s Organization (EO) Bangalore chapter, is converting the school’s boarding block into a 120-bed oxygen center.

According to the school, this facility, which is operating on a not-for-profit basis will cater to those who do not need critical medical care but are in dire need of oxygen.

EO (a network of entrepreneurs with more than 180 chapters in over 60 countries) has initiated a campaign, ‘Take a pledge. Save Bangalore from Suffocating: 100 Lakhs. 100 beds. 100s of lives’, to raise funds and other resources for the oxygen center at the school.

Cytecare Cancer Hospitals will be the medical partner and will operate and manage the facility end to end.

The facility is expected to be ready around mid-May.
