We are pleased to share that your contributions have helped us organize a two-day health checkup camp for sanitation workers in Khamnor and Delwara blocks of Rajsamand district in Southern Rajasthan.
Sanitation workers sweep our streets and gutters during the early morning hours, while everyone is still asleep. Despite the crucial work they do, they often earn modest wages and are looked down upon by society.
They face significant health risks due to exposure to unhygienic conditions and strenuous physical labor, yet they often lack proper health awareness and access to medical care. This lack of awareness means many are unaware of the ailments they face. Recognizing this need, Seva Mandir has organized medical camps to identify and treat occupational health hazards and other health issues among sanitation workers. These checkups include screenings for respiratory issues, skin conditions, musculoskeletal disorders, and infectious diseases, which are all common concerns for sanitation workers due to their exposure to hazardous environments.
We want to extend our heartfelt thanks for your contributions. These essential checkups would not be possible without your generous support. Together, we can improve the lives of sanitation workers and ensure they receive the dignity in their jobs that we all seek in our lives.
Warm regards,
Seva Mandir Team
