About Us
SUNANDA FOUNDATION is a “not-for-profit”, public charitable trust registered under Bombay Public Trust Act, 1950.
Since its’ inception from August 2015, trust has been involved in various community development activities under its Health and Hygiene, Sanitation, Education, Livelihood, Women Empowerment and Financial Inclusion programs. Major area of engagement for the trust is to provide primary healthcare services for the needy and marginalized community through its Mobile Medical Units, Medical Camps, Health Education and community Health Awareness Campaigns in collaboration with like-minded organizations in rural and urban India.
“Mobile Medical Unit” is trust’ flagship project which provides mobile clinic services like doctor’ consultation, medicines and health and hygiene counseling to needy people at community level. This is a donor supported free medical service project for the beneficiaries across 3 locations in Maharashtra. More than 1 lakh people have directly benefited by this project over 3 years.
We operate “Reading Room” facility for the benefit of children from urban slums. Along with providing conducing environment for studies, our teachers facilitate better learning outcomes through creation of joyful learning environment. More than 200 students are benefiting out of this project.
Trust aims to start model “Affordable Health Clinics” in urban slums for the benefit of needy community to access affordable primary health care and ensure minimum burden is placed on secondary and tertiary healthcare facilities of the country. These clinics shall provide doctor’ consultation, medicines, diagnostic facilities and generic pharmacy services under one roof. This shall reduce health expenses of the community and will minimize out of pocket expenses on secondary and tertiary care when the primary care is cost prohibitive for majority of the marginalized community.
