Our COVID-19 Response, July 2020

The COVID-19 pandemic is the defining global health crisis of our time and one of the greatest challenges that the world has ever faced. Here’s what we have been doing to address it in our own small ways.

Mobile Dispensary Vans

Doctor at your Doorstep

Desh Apnayen, Bharatiya Jain Sanghatana and CREDAI MCHI in association with the Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai are running Mobile Dispensary Seva Vans in Mumbai for:

– diagnosis and treatment of basic health ailments
– early detection and treatment of COVID

Mumbai : 5 lakh+ people screened!

India : 15 lakh+ people screened!


Desh Apnayen Actizens’ Club

The Desh Apnayen Actizens’ Club gives school students from across India a variety of opportunities to become an ACTIZEN – an alert, informed and active citizen. They also get to hone leadership skills, be it as the President, the Secretary or a member of the Club.

This year, we are putting together weekly activities such that the students can do them from within their homes! We have also tweaked our registration process for schools that want to start a Club or renew it.
