- To impart health education to children and their parents, promoting awareness about preventive healthcare measures, hygiene practices, and nutrition.
- To collaborate with local governmental bodies and NGOs to amplify the reach and impact of the health posts.
- To monitor and evaluate the health outcomes and effectiveness of the General Health Camps, leveraging this data to continually refine and improve the health camp services.
- To establish a model that can be replicated in other underprivileged communities, thereby scaling the impact and fostering a culture of health equity.
