Transforming Lives and Building Hope for the People of Congo- The Harish Jagtani Foundation
New Delhi [India], May 2 (ANI/SRV): The Harish Jagtani Foundation is a non-profit
organization founded by Harish Jagtani,
an Indian national, in Kinshasa in 2016. With this initiative, he envisages
bringing a positive change in the public healthcare sector of Africa by
chalking out a path toward humanity. The Harish Jagtani Foundation’s contributions during the pandemic are incalculable and beyond
words of appreciation. In no small measure, Harish Jagtani, the
foundation’s chief visionary, has been praised all across the globe for his
noble work.
One of the recent highlights of the activities of the Harish Jagtani Foundation was bringing the BMVSS team from Jaipur to the Democratic
Republic of Congo for the Jaipur Foot Campaign. The Jaipur foot, also known
as the Jaipur leg, is a rubber-based prosthetic leg that is extremely useful
for patients who have had limbs amputated. The Jaipur foot campaign kicked off
from December 1 till January 30, with over 575 limbs, which were fitted
including a couple of upper limbs at the Harish Jagtani Foundation’s camp in Kinshasa City. HJ Foundation has set up a dedicated camp to
create and fit 575 prosthetic limbs for persons who have been disabled for
various reasons.
This camp was free of charge, and persons who have lost limbs were given
new limbs and trained on using their new limbs so that they can resume their
normal lives, with their faces eloquent with happiness. For the 575 persons who
benefited from the campaign, this camp proved to be a life-changing experience.
Keeping in mind the dire state of the underprivileged population, all the people
who visited their camp were also provided with meals and money for their
commutation by the Harish Jagtani foundation. Hard work and consistency pay off and this foundation is the flag
bearer of the same. It is the grit and determination of the people of the
foundation, which has helped them transform lives and build hope for the people
of Congo.
Last year, the Harish Jagtani Foundation, performed
more than 100 free surgeries on cataract and glaucoma patients. For
accomplishing this great task of delivering light to 100 families, the
foundation established the DON DE LA VISION ophthalmological campaign.
Furthermore, HJ
Foundation is collaborating with HJ Hospital and the
government of the Democratic Republic of Congo to ensure that renal dialysis is
free and accessible to all individuals, including the poor. In no small measure,
scores of people die every year due to the lack of resources when it comes to
renal dialysis. Thus, this step undertaken by the HJ foundation is definitely inching towards humanity.
Going back in time, his steering wheel of motivation prompted him to
commence his journey towards doing something for needy people. Jagtani said,
“Through the foundation’s successful stories, I want to spotlight grievances,
triumphs and experiences of the underrepresented, needy and diminished voices
in Congo”. With the same vision, he unravelled HJ Foundation to the
world.
Opening up doors of hope for the Congolese natives, the Harish Jagtani Foundation has decided to set up a permanent camp in the heart of Congo,
which will be functional from June 30, 2022. The camp will revolve around the
Jaipur Foot, anti-malaria initiative, kidney dialysis and DON DE LA VISION
ophthalmological campaign.
Furthermore, Harish Jagtani believes that the reason behind his immense
success is his strong supporting pillars- his mother, Neeta Jagtani and his
wife, Sunita Jagtani. They have played a significant role in supporting the
fountainhead of illuminating ideas- Harish Jagtani. Furthermore, their
contribution to society has reached its zenith. Neeta Jagtani and Sunita ‘Neha’
Jagtani, have helped scores of people in the pandemic, from distributing 10,000
PPE kits to delivering 100s of food packets for the needy, they have marked the
flags of growth on the map of humanity.
Dreams do come true if you work hard towards it and let your passion
drive your force. Harish Jagtani has proven
himself to be a standing example of the same. With the perfect blend of
humanity and smooth execution, he has won scores of hearts in Congo. On his way
to becoming the reigning leader in the world of humanity, Harish Jagtani is a
name to remember.
