Centre For Transforming India (CFTI)

Health-care facilities in rural India still remain inaccessible to many underprivileged people and low-income groups. We aim to provide health-care facilities to those deprived of quality and timely health-care services. We have undertaken several projects in rural India and have conducted help-drives in urban areas as well.

• Donated one ambulance each to Shreegaon and Nhave with the support of Survival Technologies Private Limited.

• We have supported medical expenses for people undergoing chemotherapy, and requiring breast cancer and leg amputation surgery.

• Distributed sanitary pads to women living in Dharavi slums and conducted awareness seminars about menstrual hygiene.

• Through Project Drishti, we organise eye check up camps and distribute free spectacles to the elderly. We have also financially assisted in cataract surgeries for some.

• Set up dental and bone density check-up camps, and conducted dental health seminars in various schools.

• Hundreds of cancer patients have benefitted under our Immediate Grants Relief Program.
