Equal Health's India 2020 Camp
Equal Health's India 2020 Camp, was held Friday 7 February to Sunday 23 February 2020 (inclusive).
Our February team consisted of seven volunteers was made up of five optical and two dental members. The focus of the Equal Health group was to assist our Indian partner organisation, SEVAI, with their community health program. The majority of the work was to provide eye examinations and dispensing of new spectacles to the rural poor in the villages west of Trichy. During the two weeks of the placement, the team gave away 2,468 pairs of glasses to people that would ordinarily not be able to afford a pair of glasses.
We would like to thank to our wonderful Optical & Dental teams for their hard work and dedication.
