At ImproveCareNow, we’re constantly inspired by the creativity and generosity of our community—and Ranveer’s birthday fundraiser is a perfect example of that spirit in action.
For his 10th birthday, Ranveer made a remarkable choice: instead of gifts, he asked friends and family to support ImproveCareNow. It’s hard to overstate how meaningful that decision is. Turning a personal milestone into an opportunity to help other kids and teens living with IBD reflects a generosity and thoughtfulness well beyond his years.
“We are deeply appreciative of Ranveer and his parents for choosing to support ImproveCareNow—this kind of generosity means so much to our nonprofit organization and to the entire ImproveCareNow network.”
— Becky Johnson Rescola, President and Executive Director of ImproveCareNow
As a nonprofit organization, ImproveCareNow depends on the dedication of individuals and families who believe in our mission and find ways—big and small—to support it. Grassroots efforts like Ranveer’s birthday fundraiser are especially powerful. They don’t just raise funds; they strengthen our community and remind us what’s possible when patients and families lead with purpose.
Ranveer and his family put so much care into organizing this fundraiser and inviting their community to take part. We’re deeply grateful for their efforts and for everyone who chose to give in his honor.
In just two weeks, Ranveer’s birthday fundraiser raised $1,865 for ImproveCareNow! And employer matching donations will be arriving soon. These contributions will help fuel our shared work to improve care, health, and outcomes for children and adolescents with IBD—work that is made possible because of an engaged, compassionate community like ours.
Ranveer, thank you for choosing to celebrate your birthday in a way that helps others. We’re honored to be part of your story, and we are so grateful to have you as part of the ImproveCareNow community💚💙
