Kerala Relief and Rehabilitation Project The recent floods in Kerala in 2018 had left a highly devastating effect in several parts of the state. Landmark Group is supporting Goonj in its rehabilitation efforts in Wayanad district of Kerala. With its time-tested model of involving communities in rehabilitation and reconstruction work, Goonj initiated its Cloth For Work in Wayanad. People worked in rehabilitation & rebuilding works cleaning up operations – from cleaning roads to restoring their waterbodies, and in turn, received the family kit with dignity instead of charitable donations. So far, we have reached a total of 12,012 individuals from Edavaka, Thavinjal and Vellamunda panchayats in Wayanad.

Get Active Landmark Group has partnered with Karnataka Heath Promotion Trust (KHPT) since 2017 for the implementation of the Get Active program in Mysore and Chincholi districts of Karnataka. An Urban Primary Health Centre at Kumbarakoppalu, Mysore has been adopted by Landmark and KHPT to strengthen its facilities & processes. The model has implemented Clinical Interventions, advanced Diagnostic tests and Behavior Change management while reaching out to 60,000 beneficiaries. Out of these, 6,500 beneficiaries have been regularly following up, and four Wellness Centers established with 32 Health Volunteers. 2
