This is Lt. N. G. Shivarakar Hospital & Maternity Home, located in Wanwadi, Pune, Maharashtra, India.
This hospital is a vital medical institution in the region, visited by over 200 citizens daily, providing not only general medical care but also obstetric and postpartum services. However, due to the lack of water purification facilities, the medical staff and even patients were unable to access clean drinking water.
WeLoveU, in collaboration with the Pune Municipal Corporation, took steps to improve the hospital’s drinking water environment. On September 11, water purification filters and a dispenser of 80-liter water were donated, ensuring clean and safe drinking water for patients, their families, and medical staff.
When the WeLoveU Pune Chapter Manager shared water quality test results of the purified water, saying, “It’s clean water,” WeLoveU members and hospital staff took turns tasting the purified water.
The Pune Municipal Corporation and hospital representatives expressed their gratitude, highlighting that the support went beyond simply providing water—it played a critical role in safeguarding community health.
“Providing clean water to patients is an essential responsibility of any hospital. Chairwoman Zahng Gil-jah and WeLoveU’s support is genuine dedication to helping the community. I was truly touched by the words ‘We love you’ accompanied by actual actions.”
Dr. Dipti Bacchaw, Director of Shivarakar Hospital
“WeLoveU is living up to its name by helping us. By donating water purification facilities in a time of water scarcity, they have demonstrated heartfelt care for our community. This initiative will also help reduce the risk of waterborne diseases.”
Dr. Nina Madhukar Borade, Health Chief of Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC)
Drinking clean water is fundamental to maintaining our body healthy. WeLoveU will protect the health of global families by supporting water purification initiatives.
