IHIF Newsletter covering the period 01 Jan to 30 Jun 2018. IHIF continues to march ahead in its Mission to prevent mortality and minimize morbidity caused due to Head Injuries and also provide Rehabilitation to those suffering from TBI and SCI. In achievement of our goals, the overwhelming support and guidance provided by our Chairman, His Highness Maharaja GajSingh of Jodhpur has been the driving force. Also, the support that our Trustees, friends, partners and donors have provided has egged us on to keep marching inspite of the road blocks and impediments that came our way.
The high points of our activities during the period under review have been an ICICI Lombard sponsored programme for awareness creation among 8,500 school going children, 3000 adults and thereafter, distribution of 4,000 helmets on gratis basis to those children who ride as pillions. These helmets are of the highest quality and meet BIS standards. Similar programmes, though on a smaller scale, have been conducted with the support of Apollo Foundation and a few other Corporate Houses. In addition, our Rehab Centres which have been upgraded with the latest State of the Art equipment continue to provide outstanding neuro rehab facilities to the under-privileged. The huge expenses involved are largely met from Donations received from our supporters; and consequently, the weaker sections can continue to be provided top of the line Rehab facilities and Assistive Services at almost no cost to them. We specially thank ICICI Lombard, HDFC/HT Parekh Foundation, Citi Corp and “One Kind Act” for being very supportive and being our guides during the foregoing six months.
