By -

 The project "Arogya 4.0" is a project conducted by the Leo club of the University of Colombo for the fourth consecutive time under the category of health, nutrition and food safety. The project was carried out under three phases. 

Phase 02 

The second phase of the project consisted of two parts. The first part was done by donating 100 liters of sanitizer to the National Institute of Infection Diseases (IDH). Hospital benefitting a large number of patients. This hospital was specially selected for this purpose as there was a great need for sanitizers due to its largest Covid-19 treatment unit. The second part ended with the construction of a vaccination room for pregnant mothers and children in the clinical building of Millaniya MOH and the entire building was renovated with the participation of a large number of club members. 


Furthermore, this work was completed more effectively by donating the necessary medicines and vitamins to the clinical unit. One of the most important pieces of feedback from the hospital staff was that the clinic and vaccination room for pregnant mothers, infants and kids was a place where they could improve both their physical and mental health. According to them, by creating such a place and by donating drugs and vitamins Project Arogya has done a great service to pregnant mothers, infants, the villages and the health sector. 



Phase 03 

The third phase aimed to educate the general public on food security and nutrition. Therefore, posters on “food safety” were created and displayed in medical centers in several cities throughout the island. The project Arogya 4.0 was concluded by the Leo Club of University of Colombo while addressing the general public, including children from orphanages, hospitals and patients, who needed nutrition, medicines, clinical facilities, hygiene needs, as well as awareness of food safety. The success of this project was due to the cooperation of the project committee and the club, the support of the sponsors and the blessings of the general public.
