Project Sunkalp | Camp KVT-MDTK-054 | 04.09.2026
25 people from Mariputhur came forward to take an important step towards protecting their health through early cancer screening.
At the Project Sunkalp cancer screening camp held at Mariputhur, Madurantakam, both women and men from the community participated:
18 clinical breast examinations
25 oral cancer examinations
4 Pap smear screenings
The camp brought together 19 women and 6 men, reinforcing an important message: cancer awareness and early detection are for everyone.
During the screening, one individual was identified with a positive finding for suspected oral cancer and was referred for further medical evaluation. This highlights why screening matters. Cancer and precancerous changes may not always cause obvious symptoms, and early identification can help ensure timely diagnosis and appropriate treatment.
For many rural communities, accessing specialised healthcare can be challenging due to distance, cost, time, or limited awareness. By bringing screening services directly to the community, Project Sunkalp is helping remove these barriers and make preventive healthcare more accessible.
Every person who comes forward for screening is taking a proactive step towards understanding and protecting their health. These camps also create opportunities to spread awareness among families and encourage communities to make regular screening a part of their preventive healthcare routine.
Through Project Sunkalp, Kalpavriksham Trust continues to work with local communities, healthcare professionals, and CSR partners to expand access to cancer screening across Madurantakam.
We believe early detection should be within everyone's reach. Together, we can build healthier, better-informed, and cancer-aware communities.
Kalpavriksham Trust is registered under 12AB, 80G, and CSR-1 (MCA) and is listed on NGO Darpan. We provide transparent, camp-wise impact reports for every CSR partnership.
