Also the people where living in a non hygienic environment

where there are more possibility for spreading of

contagious diseases

We did street play to make an awareness program on the risk of usage of tobacco. We displayed posters and pamphlet of the people who suffer with the usage of tobacco and exhibit to the villagers

Posters and pamphlet the villagers were directly conscious on the risk of tobacco usage.

Organized a health camp with the help of NGO’s RICE and TdH-NL Vidyaniketan

Cleaning the village the villagers offered their brooms, spade other cleaning materials and they also volunteered to help

The change was possible by the street play, poster exhibition, pamphlet distribution, cleaning of the village premises and more over the kind and benevolent approach.
