Gulmohar Maitri's "Navya" initiative is a testament to our commitment to eradicating cervical cancer. This focused campaign is a significant step towards safeguarding the health of future generations by providing free cervical cancer vaccinations to adolescent girls.
Targeted Vaccination Campaign for Adolescent Girls
Navya is dedicated to administering free vaccinations to adolescent girls aged 11 to 17 years. This age group is crucial, as vaccinating young girls before they are exposed to the virus can significantly reduce the risk of developing cervical cancer later in life.
Launching Navya: A Symbolic Start
The program was launched on the 11th foundation day of Gulmohar Maitri, marking a new chapter in our fight against cervical cancer. On 18th March 2021, we began this journey by vaccinating 11 girls from slum areas near Haj Bhawan, Patna. This symbolic start underlines our commitment to reaching the most vulnerable sections of society.
Ambitious Goals: Vaccinating 111,111 Girls
Navya is not just a campaign; it's a long-term initiative with an ambitious goal to vaccinate 111,111 girls. This large-scale effort is crucial in drastically reducing the incidence of cervical cancer in the community.
A Collaborative Effort for a Healthier Future
Our effort in Navya is supported by a wide array of partners, including healthcare organisations, hospitals, doctors, pharmaceutical companies, eminent personalities, and the general public. This collaboration underscores the collective responsibility and commitment towards creating a cancer-free society.
Impact and Reach: Ensuring a Healthy Life for the Young Generation
Through Navya, we aim to not only provide immediate health benefits to young girls but also to eradicate the possibility of cervical cancer in society. This initiative is a stride towards ensuring a healthier life for the young generation, reducing the overall burden of this disease.
Navya is more than a vaccination drive; it's a movement towards a healthier, cancer-free future. By focusing on preventive care through vaccination, we are taking concrete steps to protect the health and well-being of young girls, paving the way for a healthier society.
Gulmohar Maitri's Navya initiative is a ground-breaking effort in the fight against cervical cancer, focusing on prevention through vaccination. It represents our dedication to creating a healthier society by protecting the young generation from the risk of cervical cancer.
