MOHAN Foundation welcomes you to a unique graphic design contest for organ donation - DESIGN FOR LIFE! This contest aims to raise awareness and promote the importance of organ donation through creative and visually appealing designs. Your task is to create a compelling graphic design that effectively communicates the significance of organ donation, encourages people to become organ donors, and dispels any misconceptions surrounding the topic.
MOHAN (Multi Organ Harvesting Aid Network) Foundation is an NGO that has been promoting Organ Donation since 25 years and it took up this cause at a time when no one had heard of it and it was considered a taboo topic. 25 years later, India continues to have one of the lowest organ donation rates in the world, mainly attributable to lack of awareness and myths surrounding Organ donation.
We invite all Students and Professionals of Graphic Design to participate in this Contest, put their creativity to use and help create powerful Artwork on Organ donation that can be used by the Foundation to motivate the public. Join us in our effort to normalize the conversation around organ donation, because Organ donation has the power of saving 8-9 lives and healing many others through donation of tissues such as eyes, skin, etc.
