Most of the patients who receive healthcare facilities belong to the socio-economically marginalized section of the society. Mainly the inhabitants belong to two blocks namely Patharpratima and Mahurapur II and do not have access to proper medical facilities as the areas are remote and isolated. Therefore, Sabuj Sangha’s health care support facilities work as a savior in their life.
Sabuj Sangha noticed that poor & elderly mass of people were not receiving proper health support. Sabuj Sangha took a small step to help them and decided to organize a free eye check-up camp and provided spectacles to those in need of it.
Sabita, a 54 yrs old resident of Purba Surendranagar of GP Herembogopalpur. Her husband, Joykrishna, is a farmer. They have five children, of which, none of them stays with their parents. Sabita and her husband are all alone at their home. She is contented to receive the eye check-up and the free spectacles. She said “At home, it’s only two of us. Our two boys send money monthly which is not sufficient. I am having an eye problem for a very long time. But, I do not have much money to buy new sets of spectacles. I heard about the eye camp arranged by Sabuj Sangha from the Health Worker. I had the eye check-up and also received the new spectacles. I am highly satisfied and wish SabujSangha to be with the old-age people.”
