Overview 

Transparent Hands plans to organize a free medical camp in Kotri, Sindh. In this medical camp, our team of expert doctors and physicians will provide the following health facilities to deserving patients:

  • Free Consultations
  • First Aid
  • Free Medicines 
  • Hepatitis B and C screenings

Challenges 

Kotri is situated approximately 90 kilometers away from Karachi and faces significant health concerns exacerbated by its harsh living conditions and limited access to essential services.

Kotri grapples with brackish water, which poses a serious threat to the health of its residents. The consumption of plagued and salty drinking water not only elevates blood pressure levels but also contributes to cardiovascular complications such as the enlargement of the heart and the development of gastric ulcers. The lack of access to clean water exacerbates the risk of dehydration and electrolyte imbalances, further compromising the health of individuals in the community.

The absence of adequate healthcare facilities and reliable transportation systems in Kotri makes it challenging for expecting mothers to access prenatal care and safe delivery services. 

Furthermore, the absence of a reliable transportation system in Kotri impedes residents’ ability to seek timely medical attention for various health concerns. Without efficient means of transportation, individuals face significant barriers in accessing essential healthcare services, leading to delayed diagnoses and treatment, and ultimately worsening health outcomes

Our Solution  

At Transparent Hands, we believe that healthcare is a fundamental right for all. Our unwavering dedication is directed towards extending vital medical assistance to the marginalized community living in Kotri, where access to quality healthcare remains a challenge. Our mission encompasses not only providing essential medical relief but also empowering residents with knowledge on maintaining healthy lifestyles and practicing good hygiene to prevent diseases.

We earnestly appeal for your generous support in our endeavor to ensure that the people of Kotri receive the comprehensive healthcare services they deserve. Together, let us work tirelessly towards achieving this critical goal of Free Medical Camp in Kotri, committed to enhancing the health and well-being of every individual in Kotri. 


Transparent Hands, in sponsorship with Packages Group, organized a free medical camp and preventive healthcare session to provide quality healthcare to underprivileged patients. This took place at the Packages Purchase Center in Jaranwala on April 24, 2024, ensuring that those in need had access to essential medical services without any financial burden. 

Free Consultations, Medicines, and Diagnostic Tests

A total of 410 deserving patients were provided with free consultations by expert doctors. In addition, essential services such as medicines, diabetes tests, uric acid tests, hepatitis B and C screenings, ultrasounds, cholesterol checks, and blood pressure checkups were also offered free of charge to the patients.

Here is a summary of this free medical camp's different diagnostic tests.

Preventive Healthcare Session

One of our expert doctors held a preventive healthcare session for the attendees at the free medical camp. The session focused on the prevention of hypertension. 

Impact

The free medical camp held in Jaranwala profoundly impacted the lives of 410 deserving individuals and their families. By eliminating financial barriers, this camp provided crucial healthcare services that would have been inaccessible. The attendees received free medical consultations, diagnostic tests, medicines, and screenings for diabetes, uric acid, hepatitis B & C, ultrasound, cholesterol, and blood pressure. 

The camp not only addressed their immediate health needs but also fostered a sense of health awareness and empowerment through preventive healthcare sessions. The generosity of donors played a vital role in supporting Transparent Hands' mission to extend high-quality healthcare services to underserved populations in remote and rural areas. Through this initiative, lives were touched, health was improved, and hope was restored to those who needed it the most.
