Amaravati Eye Hospital joins P4 initiative
Vijayawada: Amaravati Eye Hospital is the latest organisation to join the Andhra Pradesh government's innovative P4 initiative. The hospital has pledged to serve as a 'guide' to poor families, helping them achieve prosperity and a better quality of life.
Dr Shailaja Ketineni, the hospital's Managing Director, personally presented a pledge to District Collector Dr G Lakshmisha at the Collectorate. Dr Lakshmisha praised the hospital's commitment, noting that it reflects a growing response to the Chief Minister's call for public participation in poverty alleviation.
'Inspired by the Chief Minister's vision, individuals and organisations are coming forward every day to be a part of P4,' said Dr Lakshmisha. He added that the satisfaction of watching a poor family rise to a better life with the support of a guide is immeasurable. The Collector also highlighted that Amaravati Eye Hospital already provides free eye care services to the underprivileged. Making its decision to join the P4 programme is a natural extension of its humanitarian work.
