  We are happy to welcome people to support “Walk for a Cause” by Mr. Kovurru Ramesh Reddy, who is a dual organ recipient. He has undergone liver transplant 11 years ago and kidney transplant 6 years ago, both from deceased donors coordinated by MOHAN Foundation.

   

  After all this time, Mr. Ramesh Reddy took this courageous step to walk for 225 kms from Proddutur to Tirumala from 4^th to 13^th September, 2014 to thank the donor families, create awareness among the general public and increase confidence among organ recipients that they can lead a healthy life even after organ transplantation. Dr. Koti Reddy and Dr. Bhanu Chandra of MOHAN Foundation will accompany Mr. Ramesh Reddy all through the journey.  

   

  MOHAN Foundation wishes Mr. Ramesh Reddy all the very best on his journey and for making such an act of valor for the noble cause of educating public on organ donation.
