About

Hey there! My name is Deeksha Bompada and I am the founder of Project Connect, a platform designed to connect cancer patients and their family members to ultimately create a system of support.​
​
Project Connect is my passion project, a platform that creates a conglomeration of support I wish I had while I saw my own parent go through the harsh realities of a cancer-diagnosis. Cancer is a raw reality that can affect any individual especially effecting oneÅ› mental health substantially. Going through a process like this less than 2 years ago, I understand the importance of having a community of support. However, some individuals may not have this, and that is exactly why I designed Project Connect. A safe place to illuminate voices from every corner.
