Challenge:
In Chakwal (district of Punjab), the majority of the people are living below the poverty line in urban slums or villages. They are struggling every day to meet their basic day-to-day expenses. In such circumstances, it is even unimaginable for them to avail health care services unless the disease has progressed to the advanced stage. Most of the people are uneducated in the localities of Chakwal due to which, they are unaware of the health issues. Due to the ever-increasing costs of healthcare in private hospitals, these people cannot even afford consultation fees and medicines. Public hospitals such as DHQ in Chakwal are not enough to cater to the needs of the over 1.5 million population of Chakwal. As examined in the previous medical camps by Transparent Hands in Chakwal, most people are suffering from stomach issues, respiratory infections, kidney stones, allergy, and gynae related diseases. Many of them are suffering from diseases that require surgical intervention but they are not able to proceed due to expensive treatment costs.
Our Solution:
With the collaboration of local NGOs of Pakistan and hospitals, Transparent Hands has provided free healthcare to more than 2000 people in its previous medical camps in Chakwal. In this upcoming camp, Transparent Hands aims to treat more than 500 patients. The expenses of this medical camp and medicines will be incurred from the donations by generous people like you.
Donate for our medical camp in chakwal and transform the lives of hundreds of patients and their families. Our journey isn’t possible without the support of people like you!
