Sachin Tendulkar on Monday announced a tie up with Aster DM Foundation to help young patients suffering from cancer and heart ailments. Each year, this alliance between Tendulkar and the Aster DM Foundation will support the treatment of 50 young patients under the age of 18 years, with the parents of the patients having to pay only a minor amount. 

"Having been associated with the Aster DM Healthcare group has given me an insight into the noble work done by the hospitals in restoring patients to health. There are many young patients who are unable to access the best of treatment due to financial problems. Extending my association through partnering with the Aster DM Foundation gives me the opportunity to help these young children get the benefit of modern advanced medical science to fight against heart disease and cancer," Tendulkar said.

The former India batsman also launched two sports centres of Aster DM Healthcare in Kerala last month, a facility for sports medicine and rehabilitation which was the first of its kind in the state.
