OUR WORK<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Strength through support,
hope through care<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Since October 2024, PRACHI has moved from a plan on paper to screening camps in villages, training rooms, and a webinar reaching across India. This page is the record. Every figure below comes from a camp register or an attendance sheet, and we update it after each event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Screening Camp in Progress at Poladpur, Feb 2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WHERE WE WORK<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n

Our work is concentrated in Pune district and coastal Maharashtra, with a second base in Ponda, Goa. We deliberately go where cancer screening does not usually reach: Kunjirwadi, Kolhapur, Poladpur. Our December 2025 webinar reached 142 people across India, and we expect online sessions to become a larger part of what we do.

SCREENING<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Screening finds cancer while it is still treatable.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Poladpur in February 2026, doctors from Tata Memorial Centre’s Centre for Cancer Epidemiology screened 88 people for breast, cervical and oral cancer in a single day. Adding oral cancer screening meant that, for the first time, our camps reached men as well as women \u2014 which matters in a country where tobacco-related cancers of the mouth are among the most common and the most preventable.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

TRAINING<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Trained volunteers are what let us scale.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In October 2025, 54 of our volunteers completed a two-day workshop run by Tata Memorial Centre’s Division of Implementation Sciences and Behavioural Research, including hands-on training in clinical breast examination and cervical swab collection using anatomical models. They left with certificates from TMC. A further ten were sponsored to a cervical cancer workshop at Deenanath Mangeshkar Hospital in November.

\n
\n
AWARENESS<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Awareness has to reach people where they already are.<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We have taught in a hospital auditorium, an IT company’s video call, an orphanage run by Mahila Seva Mandal, a college hall in Warje, and \u2014 most unusually \u2014 through a traditional kirtan in Goa, where a breast cancer surgeon set cancer awareness to devotional verse and held an over-capacity hall for two and a half hours.
