Sponsored by: SNEHA FOUNDATION
About the Program
Our
program aims to assist families who may not be aware of early symptoms or
neglect life-threatening disease signs due to financial constraints. We have
observed that early awareness can prevent further deterioration of the
condition. Our efforts include providing free medical camps and medication to
bridge this gap.
Challenges Around
It
is common for these individuals to avoid seeking treatment for early stage
physical pain, due to lack of knowledge and resources to educate themselves
about serious illnesses and symptoms of life-threatening diseases.
Our Solution
Sneha
Foundation began providing free generic medicine and conducting regular medical
camps and seminars on various health-related topics to reach out to these
families. These seminars bring people from the community together and create an
open forum for them to share their struggles. Our free medication and
consultation services help to address these issues in the early stages, saving
both time and resources.
Impact
The Arogy Setu program has so far benefited 4,665 people, who have received free medication and consultation on various health-related issues. With support, we can reach even more individuals and create a healthier society. Addressing the cycle of poverty through this effort, healthy families become more productive and lead to happier lives.
