LCH-SEH is a charitable non-profit organization, committed to provide Quality Eye care services for poor and needy to prevent

blindness in India.

Introduction & History

Introduction:When there is purity of intention behind any purpose, an entire world can be conquered. One such vision is the driving force behind Kalavati Sadhuram Alimchand Trust (KSAT). The vision was the brainchild of Shri Sadhuram Alimchand, a successful entrepreneur with a flourishing business in West Indies. One day, he dreamt of a blind child painfully finding his way on an empty street. The image stirred something deep within him. He shared his dream with his wife, Smt Kalavati and in an instant their purpose in life became crystal clear. Their lives would henceforth be dedicated to the cause of the visually handicapped. Unfortunately, Mr. Sadhuram did not live long to fulfill his dream. But undaunted, Smt Kalavathi decided to breathe life into her husband’s extraordinary vision. After disposing some property, she, along with a group of like minded people formed the Kalavati Sadhuram Alimchand Trust (KSAT) in 1968 and invited Lions Club of Hyderabad to establish a charitable eye hospital as a joint venture, as Lions Club of Hyderabad had many service minded reputed Eye Surgeons in its fold. Moreover, Lions Clubs have international reputation and are known for their philanthropic and self-less service & have adopted Madame Helen Keller as their role model.

History:The Hospital Building was provided by Kalavati Sadhuram Alimchand Trust and initially equipped by Lions Club of Hyderabad till joint Trust is formed. Both the Organizations together laid foundation stone in the year 1972 by the Governor of Andhra Pradesh and subsequently the hospital was inaugurated by Transport Minister of A.P. Shri.J.ChokkaRao on 16th June, 1974. The affairs of the Hospital are administered by a Board of Governors of above Trust on non profit basis as N.G.O.

Chairman’s Message

Brethren across the Globe, Ladies and Gentlemen,

I welcome you on to view this Profile and give your feedback on the humanitarian work being carried out by the Lions Club of Hyderabad Sadhuram Eye Hospital.

The Vedic adage declares “Sarvendriyanam Nayanam Pradhanam”, which means that out of all the senses possessed of by the human being the Eye is the most precious. With this avowed object of preserving sight the Lions Club of Hyderabad Sadhuram Eye Hospital is formed for rendering Charitable services to the poor & needy.

I would therefore appeal to everyone to supplement and support the activities of Lions Club of Hyderabad Sadhuram Eye Hospital, so that we may all provide not only sight but also insight and foresight. I would whole heartedly request you all to make such donations as you could to usher in a new dawn to the suffering sightless visually challenged millions of people especially in the Third World Countries.
