HPV Vaccination Drive

Reach Lives, in collaboration with Manipal Hospital Yelahanka, successfully conducted an HPV vaccination drive for 60 children, reinforcing its commitment to expanding access to preventive healthcare. The initiative was made possible through the invaluable support of Stonehill International School, whose partnership played a key role in executing the programme. Manipal hospital, as before, supported the cause with their medical expertise, hospitality and the willingness to conduct more such drives. Reach Lives continues to focus on reducing the burden of preventable diseases among under-served communities.

Global and national health authorities—including the World Health Organization and the Indian Academy of Paediatrics—recommend HPV vaccination for children and adolescents as a primary strategy to curb future cancer risk.
