Sewa International - Chennai flood relief update- Day 1
My trend with experiencing the selfless service of RSS volunteers continued .........
On Thursday - Dec 17, I arrived in Chennai as a Sewa International volunteer.
One of the main goal was to experience first hand the relief activity being undertaken by the local Sewa volunteers who are working tirelessly in helping those affected by Chennai Floods , and in that process also try to do my 0.0001%.
At the outset, I would like to clarify that although there are photo's of me doing the volunteering work, my contribution is minuscule as compared to the countless volunteers who have been helping, day in day out since past few weeks.
Day 1 :- Medical camp for school kids @ Perumbar Government school
- Currently the relief activity work comprises of "distributing the relief materials", "Counseling for the impacted people", "Providing medical advice via medical camps etc".

- Doctor's from nearby government college were taking care of seeing the Kids and prescribing them any medicine, depending upon their health.
- We were taking in Kids in batches inside a room, where all the medicines were located. Doctors were also seated in these rooms in group of 2.
- After registering the Kid, they were then directed to the doctors who very patiently listened to their queries and helped them provide the medicine.
- Total of 429 kids were examined and helped during the 5 hour medical camp.
