Spreading awareness about good health

As part of their efforts towards creating awareness about health issues, the Jiva team of Hyderabad Youth Assembly (HYA) conducted a session at Grace Foundation in Secunderabad recently.

Led by B Satya Avnesh, the theme was ‘Awareness on fitness, meditation and hygiene’ in which members along with assistant leaders Chanakya and Tulsi educated children.

“We began with a meditation session for the children that our ‘heartfullness’ group conducted. Later medical checkup was organised for the orphans, which was conducted by a final year MBBS student of the team, Satya Shika,” informed Avnesh.

“The kids were preliminarily examined for problems and also checked for their age:weight:height ratio and their BMI's.

Shortly after, the kids chocolates were distributed to these orphans along with personal hygiene kits.

All the volunteers then interacted with the children for a while, and the girls were given ample awareness about how to live and make their day to day lives simpler and awareness on menstrual sanitation was given by our team,” said the leader.
