Friends, the Covid 19 pandemic has affected all, not just medically but also economically and socially. Gram Seva has been trying to help the patients coming to the hospital for medical services, by continuing its hospital activities day and night.

Gram Seva celebrated the silver jubilee of the organization this year. The organization was started in 1994 with the aim of health care and rural development in tribal area of south Gujarat.

The annual free medical and surgical mega camps were organized in the interior villages of Dolvan Ta.Vyara and Vangan Ta.Vansda this year. More than 2000 patients attended the camps and about 173 were brought to Kharel Hospital for further medical and surgical management.

Gram Seva has been selected by Childline Foundation, to provide these services in Navsari district. We have formed a childline team, which along with the support of district child protection department, police, and local governing bodies shall try to help any child aged 0 to 18 years, in any type of difficulty. These are free services and any child or parent or guardian or any well-wisher can call on 1098 to avail these services. If any child needs counseling and guidance, it shall also be provided.
