As LFU looks towards the future, the NGO remains steadfast in its commitment to uplifting communities through education and creating a positive impact on society.

LFU, initiated by students of BJ Medical College, started as a movement to make medical education inclusive and affordable for the most economically disadvantaged. The organization has grown steadily, with students from various medical and engineering colleges voluntarily joining the cause.

LFU stands as a pioneer in providing free coaching for NEET, aiming to support needy and underprivileged students through proper hand-holding and quality education. In its eight batches, LFU has successfully facilitated admissions for 96 MBBS, 17 BDS, 51 BAMS, 14 BHMS, 9 NURSING, 1 B FARM., 1 BMLT, and 6 PHYSIOTHERAPY seats.

LFU’s unique approach extends beyond academics, emphasizing the incorporation of ethical and moral values in the minds of aspiring healthcare professionals during the rigorous two years of coaching.
