On 26th June 2025, APAL’s State Committee in Telangana, in collaboration with the Hill of Hope Foundation, organized a vital outreach program in Shanthinagar Leprosy Colony and Santhoshnagar Leprosy Colony. This collaborative initiative focused on extending medical support and supplies to 150 persons affected by leprosy, who live in marginalized and underserved conditions.

The APAL State Committee facilitated the coordination between the community members and the Foundation, ensuring that the materials reached those most in need. The supplies included basic medicines, wound care kits, protective footwear, and hygiene items specifically designed to aid in the long-term care of people with leprosy-related disabilities. This effort reflects APAL’s ongoing commitment to health equity and dignity for persons affected by leprosy. Through such partnerships, the organisation continues to strengthen its grassroots presence.
