299 Health Check-up camp for the Children at Surwadi, Ghadgemala, Mirgaon and Nimblak
Ahmednagar- October 2024: Bosco Gramin Vikas Kendra (BGVK) organized health camps in the villages of Surrwadi, Ghadgemala, Mirgaon, and Nimblak in Satara district, benefiting 219 children. This initiative was part of the 'Rural Health and Nutrition' project, generously supported by the Cummins India Foundation.
Health camps for children in rural areas play a crucial role in improving access to healthcare, promoting preventive measures, and addressing specific health needs in communities where regular healthcare services are limited. These initiatives significantly enhance children's well-being and strengthen community health efforts. They also facilitate the early detection of health issues, enabling timely interventions and effective management of health conditions.
The health camps were conducted in collaboration with doctors from various reputable hospitals, including Dr. Pol and their teams, who provided medical care for the children. The smooth execution of the camps was ensured by Mr. Vilas Alhat, a dedicated staff member of BGVK. Village residents expressed their heartfelt gratitude to the Cummins India Foundation and BGVK for their invaluable support, which has positively impacted the health and well-being of the community's children.
