Chandigarh – Caring for medical staff and patients
On June 19, 2024, the Head of the Department of Hospital Administration-cum-Medical Superintendent, PGIMER requested VMRK to donate water coolers and water purifiers. These were needed for their recently established new Outpatient Department Ward to provide clean and safe drinking water for staff, patients, and visitors.
VMRK, grateful to PGIMER for providing the opportunity to extend our charitable initiatives further, took prompt action. On the morning of June 24, five water coolers, each with a capacity of 80 liters along with water purifiers, were purchased. These items were then loaded onto a pickup truck by a team of five VMRK volunteers and transported to PGIMER.
Later that day VMRK presented these items to the Director, Medical Superintendent, and other staff members of PGIMER. The director of PGIMER expressed heartfelt appreciation for VMRK’s ongoing support and timely assistance to the institution.
