Through the baseline surveys and need assessments, it was revealed that the Government healthcare system in the rural areas of Varanasi is many of the times insufficient to address the health needs of the people. The villagers have to either live with their illness or go to the private hospital which leads to huge out-of-pocket expenditure. Moreover the health behavior pattern of the population becomes misaligned to the preventive approach leading to long term complications. Considering the need, Active Social Welfare Society NGO wants to initiate a comprehensive health project in marginalized villages of Varanasi with the objective to meet primary healthcare needs of the villagers through curative, preventive and promoting services at their doorstep.

Fun Planet Educational Trust “CLINIC ON WHEELS” (COW) is a project for providing quality OPD services to the residents of marginalized villages lacking good healthcare facilities. It is a effort by Fun Planet Educational Trust  NGO to fulfill the gap between the villagers and the govt. healthcare infrastructure. Fun Planet Educational Trust  will provide quality OPD services and free medication at their doorsteps. Along with this, the outreach team will work intensively on increasing health awareness through sessions in schools and community with the objective to improve the health-seeking behavior and to lower down the disease incidence rate among the community.
