SGEF- INITIATIVES

On July 14, 2024, Mr. Nalla Suresh Reddy performed a Varahi Mata Puja and Homam, praying for the success of Kamala Harris, the newly announced Democratic Party presidential candidate.

He calls on Indian NRIs to support the Democratic Party and help elect a leader who represents diversity, progress, and global cooperation.

With a mission to eliminate avoidable blindness in the tribal regions of Bhadradri by 2025, the Shyamala Gopalan Educational Foundation (SGEF) launched a focused eye care initiative.

The project has already achieved significant milestones, delivering sight-restoring cataract surgeries to hundreds of underserved tribal men, women, and children living in remote villages.

Beyond medical intervention, the Foundation is committed to educating and uplifting illiterate tribal communities across Telangana and Andhra Pradesh, working toward a healthier, more empowered future.

On the birth anniversary of Dr. Shyamala Gopalan, the Foundation launched a large-scale afforestation mission aimed at promoting climate action and environmental sustainability.

Continuing the spirit of that day, SGEF facilitated the planting of 5,000 saplings across various regions in the state. This initiative has now grown into "Tree for Life – Mission One Million Trees," with plantation drives taking place in multiple parts of the country.

Through this mission, SGEF is committed to building a healthier planet, one tree at a time.

As part of its ongoing commitment to community welfare, members of the Shyamala Gopalan Educational Foundation donated 25kg rice bags near 10 Ganesh Mandapams during the festival celebrations.

This humble gesture reflects the Foundation’s dedication to supporting local communities and upholding the values of sharing and compassion, especially during culturally significant occasions.

As part of its commitment to social welfare and financial security, the Shyamala Gopalan Educational Foundation (SGEF) launched a Group Insurance Scheme for small-time transporters and auto drivers.

Through this initiative, 500 families in the town received a life cover of ₹5,00,000 each, offering much-needed protection and peace of mind to those who keep our cities moving.

In honor of Dr. Shyamala Gopalan's legacy, the Foundation conducted a series of charitable activities across South India. As part of this initiative, ration kits were distributed to poor and vulnerable families, reflecting her enduring values of compassion, dignity, and service to humanity.

The Shyamala Gopalan Educational Foundation (SGEF) played a pivotal role in helping 60 tribal residents of Palvancha regain their eyesight through a targeted eye care initiative.

One of the beneficiaries shared,

“I never expected I would be able to see the world again. Thanks to SGEF for helping me see again.”
 

SGEF Founder & Chairman, Mr. N. Suresh Reddy, shared that the initiative began after a tribal activist approached the Foundation seeking help for underprivileged individuals suffering from vision loss.

This effort reflects SGEF’s unwavering commitment to accessible healthcare and human dignity, especially in underserved communities.

To mark the Formation Day of the Shyamala Gopalan Educational Foundation (SGEF), a series of free medical camps were held at SGEF-affiliated healthcare institutions across the region.

These camps provided general health check-ups, specialist consultations, diagnostic services, and essential medicines to underserved communities—completely free of cost. Hundreds of individuals, including senior citizens, women, and children, benefitted from timely care and health awareness.

The initiative reflects SGEF’s continued commitment to inclusive healthcare and its mission to uplift and support vulnerable populations through compassionate service.

To commemorate the Formation Day of the Shyamala Gopalan Educational Foundation (SGEF), free blood donation camps were organized across various SGEF-affiliated healthcare institutions.

The initiative witnessed enthusiastic participation from volunteers, students, healthcare professionals, and local residents—coming together to support lifesaving efforts and promote the spirit of giving.

These camps not only helped replenish blood banks but also reinforced the Foundation’s dedication to public health, community service, and compassionate outreach.
