In a significant step towards promoting preventive healthcare and safeguarding the future of young girls, the Rotary Club of Bokaro successfully organized a Free Cervical Cancer Vaccination Camp at Olgara Village in Chas Block, Bokaro. The initiative aimed to raise awareness about cervical cancer prevention and ensure that rural girl children have access to life-saving vaccination services. During the camp, 30 rural girl children received the cervical cancer vaccine free of cost. The vaccination was administered by the dedicated medical team of Muskan Hospital, Chas, Bokaro, under the expert supervision of Dr. S. C. Munshi, one of the leading pediatricians in Chas, Bokaro. The medical team ensured that the vaccination process was carried out safely while also educating parents and guardians about the importance of preventing cervical cancer through timely immunization. The campaign received valuable support from Rotarian Mr. Ashok Taneja, whose commitment to community health played an important role in making the programme successful. His encouragement and support reflected Rotary’s continued dedication to improving healthcare access for underserved communities.
Volunteers from Jharkhand Foundation Kendra, Dr. Jaydev Kumar Mahato and Mr. Angad Kumar, actively participated in organizing the camp, coordinating with villagers, and assisting the medical team throughout the programme. Their sincere efforts helped ensure smooth execution and maximum community participation. The vaccination camp was warmly welcomed by the local community, highlighting the growing awareness of women’s health and the importance of preventive healthcare in rural areas. Such initiatives not only protect young girls from cervical cancer but also contribute to building healthier and more informed communities.
