Awareness of TB, dengue, flu, AIDS and COVID-19 through street play, Pala, Daskathia, Ghoda Nacha and tribal dance.
Our work
Health & Awareness
Awareness of TB, dengue, flu, AIDS and COVID-19 through the performing arts, with health camps, donation drives and sanitation and road-safety work.
Background
TB, dengue, flu, AIDS and COVID-19 are silent killers where people are not aware of them. The Trust carries awareness through traditional methods — dance, music, street play, Pala, Daskathia, Ghoda Nacha and tribal dance with music — as well as modern methods, including training classes in collaboration with the School & Mass Education Department, CBSE and ICMR (Government of India).
Its objects also include eradicating superstition through awareness, medical and health check-up centres, blood and eye donation camps, and sanitation and road-safety programmes.
