Challenges
Kotri is a city in the Jamshoro district of Pakistan’s Sindh province, located in the country’s southeast. It is the 29th largest city in Pakistan with a population of 223,617, as of current data. The region remains largely neglected in terms of healthcare facilities. The recent wave of floods has displaced thousands of people who are in dire need of medical care and shelter now. Most of the people who are still on the ground are battling diarrhea, malaria, dengue fever, chest infections, and several skin diseases.
Our Solution
Transparent Hands plans to arrange a free medical camp and preventive healthcare session on seasonal allergies and skin infections for the residents of Kotri. We believe that such awareness sessions for various health conditions and diseases are critical for educating people on the diagnosis, treatment, and management of these conditions. It helps people stay healthy throughout their lives by encouraging them to live in a healthy way.
During these medical camps, our doctors and specialists will provide free consultations, medicines, and the aforementioned diagnostic tests. The patients who need surgeries or other medical treatment will be registered with Transparent Hands and referred to one of our panel hospitals.
There are hundreds of deserving patients in the area who could greatly benefit from your generous contributions to this worthy cause. With your help and support, we are able to provide free and quality healthcare facilities to deserving people and urge you to follow a healthy lifestyle.
