Bring Healthcare to Low-Income Communities in Jaranwala
Transparent Hands plans to organize another free medical camp to improve health outcomes for needy patients in Jaranwala. We have recognized this as an area where numerous people are suffering from treatable diseases and their financial constraints prevent them from accessing timely health care. We will bring much-needed healthcare services, including checkups, lab tests, medicines, and treatments, to Jaranwala’s residents.
Challenges:
Jaranawala is a region where many people are surviving in poverty. For them, accessing even basic healthcare services is a struggle. Inadequate medical facilities further worsen the situation, leading to delayed treatment and avoidable health complications. These issues highlight the critical need for accessible medical services in Jaranwala.
Common diseases in Jaranwala include diarrhea and typhoid, largely due to poor water sanitation. Additionally, scabies, hypertension, gastroenteritis, and upper respiratory tract infections are also prevalent.

The camp will provide free medical check-ups, diagnostic services, and medicines to patients of all ages. Our team of experienced healthcare professionals will ensure that everyone receives proper care, providing much-needed relief to the underserved population. This camp aims to make high-quality healthcare accessible to those who need it most. Our highly qualified medical team of doctors, pharmacists, nurses, volunteers, and technicians will provide the following free medical services:
