Founded in 1970, the Comprehensive Rural Health Project (also known as Jamkhed, for the city where it is based) delivers preventive care to poor people who otherwise would get none. The project has served 300 villages and 500,000 people in Maharashtra state, including a newborn baby, fully swaddled and suspended for his weigh-in by village health worker Leelabai Amte.
