Support ISKCON Gangasagar’s Medical Camp Initiative
Bringing Healthcare to the Underprivileged
Nestled in the heart of the Bay of Bengal, Gangasagar Island and its neighboring remote islands are home to thousands of underprivileged families who face daily struggles to survive. Limited access to healthcare, economic hardships, and recurring natural calamities leave them highly vulnerable to severe health challenges. Often, minor health issues—left untreated due to financial constraints—escalate into life-threatening conditions.
ISKCON Gangasagar is committed to addressing these critical challenges by organizing regular medical camps to provide free healthcare services to economically disadvantaged communities. However, due to insufficient funding, we’ve been forced to pause this life-saving initiative multiple times despite overwhelming demand. We firmly believe that compassionate individuals, organizations, and groups can make a profound difference in ensuring the continuity of this essential program.
Our medical camps are organized during local festivals, in response to natural disasters, at large gatherings (melas), and as part of a monthly outreach program, providing much-needed healthcare support. To sustain and expand this life-changing initiative, we urgently need your support.
Many remote villages and islands lack even basic healthcare facilities. Our initiative ensures that free healthcare services reach these underserved regions.
Early detection of diseases saves lives. We provide general check-ups, diagnostics, and emergency care to prevent minor ailments from worsening into serious conditions.
During floods, cyclones, and other natural disasters, we deliver urgent medical care, alongside food and shelter support to affected families.
A healthy childhood paves the way for a brighter future. Our initiative includes nutritional support and basic education for children from marginalized families.
Large religious gatherings expose thousands of devotees to extreme weather and health risks. Our medical camps provide first aid, dehydration treatment, and emergency medical services to ensure their safety.
Healthcare should never be a luxury. Our regular health awareness sessions and medical camps empower communities to lead healthier lives.
Transporting critically ill patients, pregnant women, and cardiac patients to mainland hospitals for urgent care remains one of our biggest challenges in these remote areas. We are seeking funding for:
π Ambulance – For quick transportation of emergency patients from remote villages.
π€ Water Ambulance – To transport patients swiftly from islands to mainland hospitals.
These vehicles will ensure swift and safe patient transport, significantly improving survival rates and access to timely medical treatment.
