Healthcare: Ensuring Better Quality of Life through Accessible Services and Awareness
Overview
At HS Charitable Trust, we work to make healthcare accessible and affordable for underserved communities. Our initiatives include health awareness programs, street plays, and counseling sessions to promote hygiene, nutrition, and preventive care. We focus on maternal and child health through regular check-ups, antenatal and postnatal care, and support for safe deliveries. We also organize free vaccination drives and health camps to address common illnesses, anemia, and seasonal diseases. With support from hospitals and specialists, we help low-income families access essential surgeries like eye and orthopedic treatments. Our efforts also cover adolescent health, mental wellbeing, and lifestyle diseases, aiming to build a healthier, more informed society.

Bridging the Gap in Surgical Care
While government hospitals and health schemes exist, many people from low-income communities are still unable to access timely surgical care. Factors such as fear of surgery, lack of awareness, complicated paperwork, and the cost of taking time off work often prevent them from getting the treatment they need. As a result, small health issues grow into serious conditions, leading to medical emergencies or loss of income. Our Surgical Support Program aims to bridge this gap by offering guidance, financial support, and care coordination—ensuring that no one is denied surgery due to social or economic challenges.
Samagra
In many urban poor communities, access to quality healthcare remains a major challenge due to poverty, lack of awareness, and gaps in the healthcare system. These barriers are made worse by growing issues like pandemics, climate change, and frequent urban crises. The Samagra Program works to build a comprehensive urban health model that focuses on prevention, early intervention, and proper treatment—especially for women, children, and other vulnerable groups. It aims to create a healthcare ecosystem that is inclusive, community-driven, and ready to meet the changing health needs of urban populations.
Reproductive and Child Healthcare Services
In many urban low-income areas, women often struggle to access timely antenatal and postnatal care, while children miss out on critical immunizations and early health checkups. Challenges like low awareness, cultural barriers, and weak outreach from public health services make it harder for mothers to make informed choices for their health and their children’s wellbeing.
Stop The Spread & COVID Vaccination Program
During the COVID-19 pandemic, HS Charitable Trust took proactive steps to support vulnerable communities in urban and peri-urban areas, especially in densely populated slums where fear, misinformation, and limited healthcare access were major challenges. Our efforts focused on spreading accurate information, encouraging vaccinations, and ensuring access to life-saving services for underserved populations.
