The speakers at the event included Mrs. Rekha Gulabani, Dr. Sumedha Kushwaha, Dr. Vaibhav and Dr. Kh Nganba. The camp was attented by around 80 members who resided in the vicinity including children and women. Approximately 70 men (85%) and 10 women (15%) attended the camp.

At the end of the session, snacks were distributed to all attendees by YouWeCan volunteers.
