Health Camp are organized at Government Schools where students are examined for general health, eye, dental care and anaemia control.

The Anaemia control on the pattern of National Anaemia Control Program and Blindness control program are carried out by the University. These two programs have been clubbed together. In the programs students are examined for Anaemia and drugs (Iron + Folic Acid + Vit A.D) are provided to them for the period of 100 days to each case. As a result of conducting these programs last year we witnessed / noted decrease of 11 % in anaemia cases were observed since previous years.

In the Eye Camp out of 174 patients 12 patients were diagnosed with senile cataract. The University made complete payment for their investigations, surgery and medicines.

Blood Donors Club

Nothing is analogous to the preciousness of human blood. In spite of the rapid and remarkable conquests of medical science today, the human blood cannot be synthetically manufactured. It is only in human beings that human blood is made and circulated. For those who require blood for saving their lives, sharing from other fellows is the only means. Hence, donation rather voluntary donation is the only way of accumulating blood at safe storage to meet emergency requirements for saving precious human lives. Unavailability of blood may cost precious lives. Hence, the voluntarily blood donation is of tremendous importance. This is the greatest magnificent gift one can do for the mankind. Voluntary Blood Donors are the saviours of mankind. If someone really loves oneself and other fellow beings, the only way to express it is to donate blood voluntarily. In this regard contribution of Sardar Bhagwan Singh University remained highly remarkable. The blood donors club of the University was inaugurated in 2003 by Late Shri Narayan Dutt Tiwari, the Ex-Chief Minister of Uttarakhand. Ever since, the University is regularly organizing the volunteer blood donation camps to cater to the needs of the hospitals in the town of Dehradun which consistently have shortage of blood because of large catering area and large gap between collection and requirement of blood.

The students, staff and faculty of the University generously donate blood for this noble cause. In two of such camp organized in this academic session 397 units of blood were donated and higher number of the female donors was a significant observation. The University maintains a directory of the volunteer blood donors and particularly those having rare blood groups, so as to ensure their service in case of emergency. Apart from the camps the students of the University always come forward to help the needy patients of this region.

Rotaract Club

The University Rotract club was inaugurated in 2012 under the patronship of rotary club Dehradun District 3080.

Rotaract clubs hold meetings, usually every two weeks, which feature speakers, discussions, and visit to other clubs. Rotaractors also get together for service projects, social activities and leadership workshops. Beyond the club level, Rotractors can take advantage of district conferences, projects, and training seminars and participate in an international meeting prior to the annual Rotary International Convention.
