Challenge:
Shergarh lacks basic healthcare facilities, and the majority of its population is deprived of such amenities. The town only has one privately-owned hospital, resulting in countless individuals being unable to access the healthcare they require. Additionally, due to widespread illiteracy, people in Shergarh have limited awareness regarding health issues and often discover their ailments at advanced stages. Common health problems faced by the people of Shergarh include water-borne diseases like Gastroenteritis and Diarrhea.
Our Solution:
Through this medical camp, Transparent Hands and its team aim to address the basic healthcare needs of patients, including men, women, and children from Shergarh and its surrounding areas. The camp will provide essential treatment to patients and raise awareness about common health issues by educating them on disease prevention and promoting a healthy lifestyle. Furthermore, the camp will enable our organization to identify and register cases requiring medical procedures or surgeries.
Please consider donating to support the healthcare of the people in Shergarh. Even the smallest contribution will make a difference!
