"There is a tendency in our society to keep cancer patients at a distance.
"This attitude even denies them chances of getting married and leading a normal life. All recovered patients, irrespective of their family and financial background, face the problem," he said.
Anybody, aged between 20 to 35 and has recovered from the disease, can register with the portal free of cost.
The 40-member organization has so far spent Rs one lakh in creating the website. Besides this, the organization is also planning a host of other programmes under their 'Cancer Treatment Mission'. Financial support for chemotherapy of children, treatment aid for adult patients and mass awareness campaigns are also on the cards, he said.
