Vitamin A+ for a Brighter Future
As a scout, I believe in serving where it's needed most. I was inspired by how a simple Vitamin A capsule can save a child’s sight and life. Helping underprivileged children and raising awareness among mothers felt like a meaningful way to make a real difference in my community.
We started with planning and coordination with the local health center. On the campaign day, I joined other scouts at the vaccination site in Kamrangirchar. We guided parents, helped with registration, and ensured children received the correct Vitamin A capsule based on their age. We also raised awareness among mothers about the benefits of Vitamin A. Throughout the day, we maintained discipline, hygiene, and a child-friendly environment.
Through this project, I learned the importance of child nutrition and how community-based health programs can save lives. I gained practical experience in organizing a health campaign, communicating with parents, and working with healthcare workers. Most importantly, I realized how small actions—like giving a Vitamin A capsule can make a big impact on public health.
