The Lions clubs Internationational counts diabetes and childhood cancer as primary areas of service. We had seen all this coming. That was the reason that some of our clubs in district 324 A6 established the Melvin Jones Memorial lions charitable trust(A trust sponsered by LC keelkatalai) under this trust we have 7 dialysis machines now and we have the opportunity of offering affordable dialysis to about 14 persons daily.
The center owns the dialysis machines and other facilities and directly serves patients affected by kidney failure. The enthusiastic support of our Lion members has been a blessing.
Apart from dialysis, the center has been offering free medical camps & Eye camps at Kovilambakkam by tying up with the Appolo Hospital, Hariharan Hospital, Nanganallur, Lion jeeva of Mugavari eye hospital, Pammal.
