NGO provides free clothes to CMCH inpatients

There are nearly 2,500 inpatients in different wards at the hospital and Chandrans Yuva Foundation does not want the inpatients to wear colourful clothes only on the day of Deepavali, but on all other days, its director Sasikala said.

The shop was opened on Friday and the inpatients were surprised when volunteers started distributing the clothes, she said. Noting that the foundation had already installed a sanitary napkin vending machine on the hospital premises, Sasikala said this was the second such cause initiating a free cloth store. This would be a permanent store at the venue to take care of the inpatients, she said.
