Reducing Healthcare Costs: By providing preventive care and managing chronic conditions early, the camp can helped reduce long-term healthcare costs for individuals and healthcare systems, easing the financial burden on families.

Educating the Community: Educational sessions were offered to individuals with disabilities (PWDs) and their families, focusing on a range of health subjects such as nutrition, hygiene, disease prevention, and self-care. 

Sustainable Health Interventions: The camp potentially demonstrated how health interventions for people with disabilities can be continued and sustained, serving as an example for similar programs and fostering ongoing support from both governmental and non-governmental organizations.
