Milestone Launch of ‘Donate Life: Join the Organ Revolution’ Initiative Ms. Syeira Bhalla under the aegis of Dr OP Bhalla Foundation launched the ‘Donate Life: Join the Organ Revolution’ Initiative today. She shared the motivation behind this initiative, highlighting, “Organ donation rate in India is 0.86 per million population, a stark contrast to the 30 persons per million in some Western countries. This scarcity has led to a waiting list of over three lakh patients. Tragically, at least 20 individuals lose their lives daily while waiting for an organ.” She fervently urged all attendees to pledge for organ donation, resonating with the message, ”Let’s spread awareness, encourage participation, and together, sow seeds of hope and vitality through organ donation.” It is noteworthy that Dr OP Bhalla Foundation received over 10 registrations for organ donation today.
