Uluru health Care Centre
UHCC
Access to affordable health care is life-changing for families in rural India, where hospitals are often too far away and private care far too expensive. That’s why TEWFI established the Uluru Health Care Centre (UHCC) in 1998—a trusted primary health clinic now serving more than 35,000 people in the Kanchipuram district of Tamil Nadu. Each week, our dedicated doctor, supported by five nurses, two social workers, and an on-site pharmacy, provides care to around 200 patients who would otherwise go untreated.
To keep this vital service sustainable, TEWFI introduced a nominal fee in 2017: just ₹20 (30¢ US) to see the doctor, free consultations with nurses, and medicines offered at cost. These small contributions ensure dignity for patients and continuity for the clinic, while keeping care accessible to even the poorest families. Thanks to UHCC, preventable diseases are being treated, lives are being improved, and hope is within reach.
