health is certainly THE greatest gift but
many are deprived of this gift
It is health that is real wealth and not pieces of gold and silver. – Mahatma Gandhi
Globally, the ‘Health’ component is considered to be an important catalyst to a thriving and flourishing society. Kaash Foundation perceives healthcare as the right of every individual and strives to bring good health to fellow citizens, in order to make the society happy and healthy. Under this vertical, Kaash Foundation conceptualizes its work by taking into account the all encompassing definition of health, as proclaimed by the World Health Organization:
‘Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being. The enjoyment of the highest attainable standard of health is one of the fundamental rights of every human being without distinction of race, religion, and political belief, economic or social condition. The health of all people is fundamental to the attainment of peace and security and is dependent on the fullest co-operation of individuals and States’.
VISION
Accounting to our burgeoning population, it has been a difficult endeavour for our national health policies to penetrate into the roots of our society. And therefore, Kaash Foundation seeks to undertake initiatives on a two thronged approach: The Rural and The Urban Sector. With this, we visualise our work through the following scenarios:
- Organising Health Awareness Campaigns
- Creating awareness and encouraging conversations on female sanitation and hygiene
- Promoting Physical and Mental Health through various health camps
- Linking various government projects to genuine beneficiaries
- Promoting Non–Allopathic treatment and healing processes like Ayurveda, Naturopathy, Yoga, Acupressure, Sujok and Sound Mediation Healing
