Phase 1 Medical Camp – BFP KMP

Phase 1 Medical Camp – BFP KMP

Barafpada has 69 students up to 5th standard. We also gave tetanus injection of 24 kids including 15 kids from the first standard. The effect of these injections would be there for at least three years. Most of the challenges were related to seasonal issues. While one team was checking kids in the school, set of team members spoke with villagers about their plans associated with water conservation next year. Barafpada is one such place where water level goes down as early as February of the year, much before the start of summer. We could not work with the village last year as they were tied up digging another well for water. But it is high time they work on water conservation – an act to ensure that water percolates in the ground before they work on taking it out – using wells.

We covered Nandelpada and Guravpada for medical check up in this visit. This was the third attempt to do medical camp in Nandelpada. This being difficult school to reach, it almost is disconnected during the monsoon.
We were privileged to have Mr Latesh Shah (Founder Chairman World Human Development Center – WHDC) with us during the visit. He spent lot of time with the kids at Kaspada and Guravpada. Latesh Sir – a renowned motivational speaker – mesmerized his young audience by talking with them in their own language and making them completely open up. He tailored his message to suit to tribal kids and made a great connection with them.
