Aster Medcity and Aster Volunteers Launch “Back to School 2.0” Initiative

KOCHI:
Aster Medcity, in association with Aster Volunteers, has launched its “Back to School 2.0” initiative, providing essential study materials to 500 underprivileged children. The program reached students across five government schools in the region, including Varappuzha, Kadamakkudy, Kottuvally, Aluva, and Chittoor.

The study materials were handed over by Iswa Fathima, a young patient who successfully underwent treatment for Hydronephrosis at Aster Medcity. Hydronephrosis is a condition where urine backs up and causes the kidneys to swell. The vehicle carrying the study materials was flagged off by CMS Dr. Dilip Paniker and Iswa Fathima in the presence of Dr. Shuhaib Khader, COO of Aster Medcity and other administration staff.

This initiative, aimed at supporting students as they prepare for the new academic year, witnessed participation from every department within Aster Medcity, with additional support from U.C. College, Aluva.

The “Back to School 2.0” program distributed a package of necessary materials, including books, school bags, umbrellas, and other stationery items.
