  • MOHAN Foundation joined hands with St. Thomas Blood Bank to set up stalls at the construction sites of True Value Homes (TVH)  at Padur, Navalur and Semmenchery in the suburbs of Chennai from 28th February to 2nd March 2013. Mr. Senthil (Safety) and Mr. Dhanasekar (HR), Mr. Arockiasamy (HR) from TVH organized the blood donation and Awareness Stall on Organ Donation.  Mr. R.

    Topics covered in the interactive session:

    • Brain death and coma
    • Organ and tissue donation by live people
    • Organ and tissue donation after cardiac death and brain death
    • Importance of a Donor card

     

    Nearly 105 members of TVH site offices took a pledge to donate organs by picking up the Donor Cards.

     

    Queries raised during the interaction were:

    In case of a labourer falling down from a great height, how can organs be donated?

    If there is cardiac death in the house, who should be contacted for eye donation?

    Should we contact MOHAN Foundation in case of brain death?

    These queries were answered.
