Sonam Kapoor's charity dinner to raise funds for children suffering from cancer

Sonam Kapoor who is the brand ambassador of Cuddles, a charity foundation that helps meet the nutritional needs of children afflicted with cancer is going a step further to promote the cause. Sonam will be hosting a charity gala dinner, on Friday night, to raise funds for children suffering from cancer.

Sonam was recently spotted at Tata Memorial Hospital, spending time with the kids at the children’s cancer ward. A source says, “She spent a lot of time, reading out stories, poems and distributing gifts to the kids. She is actively involved with the doctors and nutritionists to ensure that these kids get the best of the facilities available. To take things into her own hands, she decided to host a charity gala dinner, which will be a fund raising event that will help the foundation gather funds to help cancer patients.”

Talking about it, the Neerja actor says, “We end up taking things that come easy to us for granted, including the food we eat. When I heard about the work the foundation is doing, it made me realise how important correct nutrition is during cancer treatment. This dinner, I hope will shed light on all their work at the foundation and also raise funds for these little fighters.
