This noble initiative has been taken on the occasion of Red Cross day, which is observed globally to celebrate the humanitarian efforts of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement.
Thalassemia is a genetic blood disorder that affects millions of people globally. It is a life-long condition that requires frequent blood transfusions to manage the symptoms and lead a healthy life. In many cases, patients with thalassemia require blood transfusions every two to four weeks, depending on the severity of their condition. As a result, the demand for blood is always high in thalassemia centers, making it crucial to promote regular blood donation.
Dr. K. Bharath Kumar, the Founder at KBK Multispeciality Hospitals, is known for his dedication to social welfare activities. He has received numerous awards for his services to the community and has been associated with several initiatives aimed at improving the health and well-being of the people. Speaking about the mega blood camp, Dr. Kumar said, “We are excited to partner with JCI Hyderabad SUPAR to organize this noble initiative. We believe that this camp will not only create awareness about the importance of blood donation but also help save the lives of thalassemia patients. We urge everyone to participate and contribute to this cause.”

The blood camp organized by KBK Hospitals and JCI Hyderabad SUPAR will be following WHO and government guidelines to ensure the safety of donors and patients amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

The donors will have the satisfaction of knowing that their blood donation could save the life of someone in need.
