What the problem actually is.
A primary health centre with a connection can consult a specialist in minutes. Without one, the same case becomes a bus journey the family may not be able to afford, and often does not make.
We connect health centres, fund the equipment that makes a remote consultation actually useful, and run screening camps for the conditions that are cheap to catch early and ruinous to catch late - vision, diabetes, hypertension, cervical and oral cancer.
The programme is deliberately unglamorous. Most of the budget goes on transport, follow-up calls and making sure someone who was told to come back actually does. Diagnosis without follow-through is not care.
Who this is for: Rural households far from specialist care, particularly women, older adults and people who cannot afford travel.
The work, specifically.
Each of these is funded with its running costs included - stipends, repairs, follow-up - because that is what decides whether it survives past the first year.

How it works →
Three things that would make a difference here.
- Fund a screening camp for one village.
- Volunteer if you are a clinician who can take a weekly remote session.
- Sponsor patient transport for a district for a year.
