COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT
COMMUNITY RURAL SPORTS
The Total Health office complex located in Aragonda offers a comprehensive range of sports and wellness facilities to the community. The complex boasts a football ground, a 100-meter and 200-meter walking track, a badminton court, a space for playing Tennikoit, and a well-equipped gymnasium. Additionally, there is a designated area within the complex that is used for conducting yoga sessions, allowing members of the community to engage in holistic wellness practices.
Total Health sponsored the first state-level kho-kho premier league at Chittoor. In addition to organising sports tournaments, Total Health provides sports material to support government schools in Thavanamapalle. In Amrabad, this rounded approach has taken shape in the form of a badminton court outside the skilling centre.
We have also taken steps to preserve traditional games and foster healthy social interaction across all age groups by organizing events centered around traditional games such as Chausar Dice (Pachikalu), Kancha (Golilu), and Lattoo (Bongaram).

ARRJAVA WARRIOR PROGRAM
Derived from Sanskrit, the word ‘Arrjava’ embodies honesty and purity. At Total Health, the philosophy of Arrjava resonates throughout our work, permeating each pillar of our initiatives. It serves as a bridge, connecting people to the heartland of India and offering insights into the harmonious way communities in villages and forests coexist with their environment.
To empower and engage with the communities we serve, Total Health enlists individuals from the local areas as Arrjava Warriors – frontline stewards crucial to every new chapter of the programme. Acting as the knowledge hub, they help the programme team understand the context of work and the values and attitudes of the residents.
The Arrjava Warriors, who are trained in basic life support, document health data, mobilize people to participate in health camps and livelihood programmes, facilitate teleconsultations, and conduct community yoga.
PHILANTHROPIC TOURISM
