V-Guard Reinforces Commitment to Inclusive Healthcare in Uttarakhand Through Multi-Speciality Camp

Uttarakhand, April 13, 2026: V-Guard Industries Ltd., as part of its ongoing Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) efforts in healthcare, conducted a multi-speciality health camp across rural regions of Udham Singh Nagar district, Uttarakhand, in collaboration with Sewa International.

 

Implemented over eight days, the initiative covered 22 Gram Panchayats across the Jaspur and Kashipur blocks, taking essential healthcare services closer to communities that often remain underserved. In these regions, access to timely and affordable medical care is frequently limited by social, financial and informational barriers. The camp sought to address these gaps by bringing care directly to where it was needed.

 

Speaking on the initiative, Dr. Reenaa Mithun Chittilappilly, Director, V-Guard Industries Limited & V-Guard Foundation, said: “Healthcare inequity remains a critical challenge in rural India. At V-Guard, we are committed to bridging this gap by enabling access, supporting early intervention and strengthening local health ecosystems. This initiative is part of our sustained effort towards building inclusive and accessible healthcare for all.”

 

Supported by a team of over 25 healthcare professionals, including general physicians, specialist doctors, pharmacists and support staff, the camp provided medical consultations, basic diagnostic screenings and essential medicines. The approach focused not only on treatment but also on early identification and preventive care, improving access and awareness at the community level.

 

A total of 1,726 individuals benefited directly from the initiative, including 778 men and 948 women. Key initiatives in healthcare by V-Guard include ‘Cancer Shield’, a free cancer screening camp, ‘Edam’, a dedicated counselling centre for women, and ‘Swastha’, which provides free dialysis support to the needy.

 

Through initiatives such as this, V-Guard continues to invest in strengthening local health ecosystems, responding to immediate needs while contributing to long-term community well-being. The effort reflects a sustained commitment to making essential healthcare more accessible, equitable and closer to everyday lives. V-Guard’s CSR efforts span diverse focus areas across the country, including education and skill development, women empowerment and the Build India & Relief initiative, with a strong emphasis on healthcare.
