On 30th April, 2015, MOHAN Foundation was invited to conduct an awareness session on organ donation for students and faculty of Malla Reddy Institute of Medical Sciences and all the students were excited to support MOHAN Foundation inspired by the activities of the foundation.
There were about 100 participants and all of them were clearly explained the purpose, necessity, importance, complex issues in deceased organ donation. They were also shown films on the concept of brain death, THO Act, Religion & Myths on organ donation. All the participants were distributed donor cards, family donor cards and information brochures.
All the students participated in this unique program and were also explained about our “Peer Educator’s Program”, where they can spread awareness among the youth and present it at several colleges. The students positively reacted to the idea and have promised to become our volunteers.
We thank the Principal and the management of Malla Reddy Institute of Medical Sciences for permitting and facilitating the students to attend this awareness session.
