Speaking on the occasion, Mr. Ashish Bhutani, Managing Trustee, MIW Foundation said
that there is a necessity of providing cost free medical services to the
inhabitants of slum areas and other marginalised people who cannot afford high
cost of medication. At the same time it is imperative to educate people and
bring awareness about fast spreading dreaded disease like HIV/AIDS amongst
people. He said that this camp was purposefully organised to address both these
social issues wherein free medicines, medical consultation about various
ailments and a dedicated HIV/AIDS awareness program was held. He further stated
that these kinds of camps should be conducted regularly for providing Medical
Relief and creating awareness about social evil like AIDS so that more and more
people can be saved from this dreaded disease.

people can benefit from it.”
