Project Partner: Arpana Research and Charities Trust
Project Number: 214
The eye hospital is located just North of Deli and is run by the Arpana Research and Charities Trust, providing eye services within their many community health programmes.
The hospital mainly serves the poor and under privileged - covering about 40 villages. The project also has 8 centres with fixed sceening camp dates each month. The Eye Department is equipped very well - not only for routine cataract work but also for glaucoma and diabetic retinopathy.
This project has been supported by CBM since 1982 and the project's performance has always maintained a good level of quality, quantum, transparency and accountability. The accounts department of this organisation has two highly qualified and experienced Chartered Accountants and thirteen other trained personnel who maintain separate accounts for each donor. The separate books are finally merged into one overall consolidated account for reporting to the Indian government.
