We have safely resumed our Health Camps including information and services realted to COVID, general health and MHM. These camps are even more important now, as we work to keep the vulnerable, often overlooked, rural communities and children healthy.
We are working with our partners in Untdi (Valsad District), Gandhinagar, and Bharuch to bring health services to more than 15,500 children.
Our Children's Health Camps provide young people with the care they need to live healthy, successful lives.
Preet, a student in 6th STD attended Bal Health Mela near his school and received a dental check-up, participate in a "Bad Habits/ Good Habits Workshop", learned how to properly use a first aid kit, learned about proper nutrition, and his was given important information on primary health care.
