A CSR initiative by Lokmanya
In a remarkable demonstration of community service and healthcare outreach, Lok Kalp Foundation partnered with KLE Shahpur Belgaum to organize a general health checkup camp in Handikopwada Village. The event took place on September 22, 2023, and saw an enthusiastic turnout of around 45 people from the local community.
This initiative is part of Lok Kalp Foundation’s ongoing efforts to promote health and well-being in rural areas. The organization has consistently worked towards enhancing the quality of life in underserved communities, and this collaboration with KLE Shahpur Belgaum is another significant step in that direction.
