The Impact of your donation
Background
As we celebrate the festival of lights at Diwali, we celebrate the Light of Hope which access to healthcare brings to a community, be it the hope of protection in the Covid-19 Pandemic, the hope of relief from pain or the hope and joy of a new-born child.
Incredible work in rural India is done at a local Community Health Centre (CHC) in a village called Sayla in Gujarat. It is a government hospital that is run and managed by the charity, Raj Saubhag. The CHC is managed and supported by Raj Saubhag Humanitarian.
It provides essential medical services to the local community of 170,000 people in 75 villages in rural Gujarat. Here, there is high illiteracy, low opportunities for good employment and infertile soil, so there is a lot of poverty.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
The Government of Gujarat funds the salaries of some of the doctors and some of the medicines.
However, all additional staff, medicines and machinery are funded by Raj Saubhag Ashram. We have very few direct supporters of the work of the Hospital, and so cannot meet the needs of the people as much as we would like. This is the reason for the event, so we can raise awareness and support. -
Please refer to the information on impact above.
-
Yes, all your donation goes to the hospital as there are no admin costs before that.
