On July 28th, 2024, BTG Trust (formerly Liferay Foundation), in collaboration with KMCH (Kovai Medical Center and Hospital) and Exterro’s CSR wing “Exterro Gives Back”, organized a free medical camp at the Kalapatti Primary School, Coimbatore. The initiative aimed to provide quality healthcare services to the underprivileged and rural population of Kalapatti Panchayat, an area where access to regular medical care is limited. The camp focused on preventive diagnostics and general health screening, targeting a beneficiary count of approximately 80+ residents. Residents received general health check-ups, diagnostic services, and consultations with medical specialists. This outreach is part of BTG Trust’s ongoing commitment to enhancing the quality of life in underserved communities. Many residents of Kalapatti are daily wage workers who often delay medical attention due to financial and logistical constraints. By bringing healthcare directly to the community, the camp bridged critical access gaps. The event was graced by Mr. Vijayakumar, Councillor of Kalapatti, as Guest of Honour, and Mrs. Maari Selvi, Head Master of GHSS Kalapatti, as the Chief Guest. Their presence inspired community participation and reinforced the importance of proactive healthcare. The medical camp was conducted smoothly from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM with a large turnout and positive feedback from the public. Volunteers, medical staff, and organizers worked in unison to ensure a professional and compassionate approach. The program reinforced the value of community partnerships in driving impact. Residents appreciated the convenience, care, and quality of services offered. This medical camp is a testimony to BTG Trust’s mission of inclusive health initiatives and was a successful step toward a healthier Kalapatti.
