MUMBAI: GP Petroleums Ltd (GPPL), a leading lubricant manufacturer in India, organized and hosted Health check-up camp for Mechanics and local community in various 15 cities of India.
The health camp was organized in association with Yashodeep Foundation with the main emphasis on Eye Check-up and overall health awareness, simultaneously conducting a checkup for the general health and hygiene conditions of the locals.
Prashanth Achar, CEO, GP Petroleums, said, “We are happy to contribute back to the community under our ‘We care’-CSR platform. We are delighted to organize these camps across tier 3 and semi-urban clusters of India, focusing on eye-checkup and the community healthcare as they do not have easy access or awareness of the medical treatments available today. This is a small step that we wish to take as a company, not just in these 26 cities but eventually branching out in other locations as well. The health camp is our step and support towards creating a healthier society and lifestyle.”
This is in continuation of same CSR-drive done in 2020 across 11 cities and 1500 mechanics. This year the health checkup camp witnessed a turnout of over 1700 mechanics and provided them with the necessary diagnosis for eye-care.
Also as a token of goodwill, GP Petroleums handed over 738 free eye-glasses to participants, post thorough eye-checkup in order to provide a helping hand to the deprived community. The locals and mechanics were also assisted additionally to identify possibilities of blood pressure, blood sugar levels and overall health consultation.
