Aarogya Karnataka funds free medical camps in rural Karnataka — and makes sure care actually reaches the people the system leaves behind.

01The Problemಸಮಸ್ಯೆ

In rural Karnataka, geography decides who gets to be healthy.

0%

of India lives in rural areas

0%

of doctors and infrastructure are there

0+ km

traveled for basic medical care

0M+

pushed into poverty each year by health costs

Clinics in towns like Gokak and Belagavi are overwhelmed — hundreds of patients a day, hours-long waits. Villages further out have no clinic at all. So people skip treatment entirely, until a manageable problem becomes an emergency.

02How It Worksನಮ್ಮ ಕೆಲಸ

We don’t just send money.
We are the bridge that gets care there.

We raise from the Indian-American community and US donors with Karnataka roots, then do the hard part: finding where the need is greatest, making sure resources actually arrive, and holding every rupee accountable back to the people who gave it.

01

We find the need

Our founder’s family has roots across Gokak, Belagavi, Almel and Bijapur. We know which villages go without a clinic — and our medical advisors, a neurosurgeon and an anesthesiologist in Belagavi, verify where care will do the most good.

02

We get care there

We fund and coordinate free medical camps. Doctors and nurses bring everything to the village — checkups, medicines, BP and glucose screening, treatment, and referrals for serious cases. All free.

03

We report it back

Every rupee is tracked through our HCB fiscal sponsorship. Donors get photos, patient counts, and real outcomes from every camp we fund. No middle layers, no black box.

What one camp looks like

A one-day event in a village school after hours, a panchayat hall, or a temple courtyard. Doctors and nurses bring all the equipment with them. In a single day, one camp serves 100–200 patients — free checkups, medicines, screenings, and referrals to hospitals for the serious cases.

$100 = ₹8,300

The purchasing-power difference means a US donation goes dramatically further on the ground in rural Karnataka than it ever could here.

04Our Storyನಮ್ಮ ಕಥೆ

Divith Gunari

Founder · Born in Gokak, Karnataka

“I grew up between two worlds. I know exactly what it costs when one of them doesn’t have a doctor.”

I’m Divith — sixteen, a rising junior at Washington High School in Fremont, California. I was born in Gokak, and my family’s roots run across Karnataka: Gokak, Belagavi, Almel, Bijapur. Every summer, I go back.

And every summer I see the same thing. Clinics so crowded that a checkup means half a day of waiting. Relatives and neighbors traveling hours for care that should be down the road. People deciding not to see a doctor at all — not because they don’t need to, but because they can’t afford the trip or the treatment.

Back home in the Bay Area, I know a community that wants to help and doesn’t know how to make sure it lands. Aarogya Karnataka is how I connect the two — turning that generosity into doctors, medicines, and camps in the exact villages I’ve watched go without.

I’m not building this from an office thousands of miles away. I’m building it for a place I know by name.

ನಿಮ್ಮ ಕೊಡುಗೆ ನೇರವಾಗಿ ತಲುಪುತ್ತದೆ

Fund care that actually arrives.

Every dollar is tracked. Every camp is documented. You give here, and it becomes a doctor in a village that hasn’t seen one in months.
