Visit to Deep Griha Society- Ramtekdi Slums

  On 29th August, medical cadets of Prayas visited Deep Griha Society at Ramtekdi slums which is an NGO working for the welfare of the people in the slums. This was the first occasion for the freshers of Y-2 batch to participate in the activities of Prayas.

  Deep Griha Society has taken initiative to work in several fields for the people of slums. These works include:

               *Women empowerment project

               *DISHA (Deep Griha's Integrated Services for HIV & AIDS

               *Medical & Healthcare Programs

               * Child Care & Child Development

               *Youth empowerment

It was a good opportunity for all Prayas members to know about how this NGO works & also about its various programmes. We learnt that there is a section of society even in developed cities like Pune who need our care & empathy. If we can take out even a small amount of time to help them, it would make a tremendous impact in someone's lives.

Informative skit on Eye Donation

An informative skit on eye donation was performed by the X-2 batch medical cadets of Prayas on 25th August. It was held on the occasion of "Prakash Purab" at the Gurudwara, Command Hospital- Southern Command. The skit was very well appreciated by the audience who asked questions about eye donation & also filled up voluntary eye donation cards. It is said that a good skit really has an impact on the audience which was evident from this skit.

Various events were organised there & everyone had a really great experience interacting with the children. Sweets were distributed after the flag-hoisting & national anthem. Also several sports goods were donated to the children. It was a joyous occasion for both cadets and the children to interact with each other.
