It was truly a mesmerizing experience to spend time with the elderly members of the community, listen to their stories, and understand their struggles. Within our capabilities, we tried to provide compassionate support through basic medical care, feasible health counselling, over-the-counter medicines, and a proper lunch meal.

We are also keeping our doors open for future treatment interventions and support whenever feasible, and AgeSense Initiative would be honored to continue standing beside these individuals in the days ahead.

Through this initiative, we reached a total of 𝟑𝟓 𝐛𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 — primarily elderly individuals, including visually impaired, amputees, and individuals with different sorts of disabilities of the community.
