Helpline Publicity Campaign - Day 1

Updated on Wednesday, March 27, 2019
  • On 16th March 2019 auto stands and roadside eateries in Collector Nagar, Chennai were visited and around 12 people were met in this area. Mr. Albin Joseph and Ms. Sunisha S.S, Interns from MMM College of Health Sciences approached auto drivers and eatery owners in Collector Nagar and explained the concepts of organ donation and also answered questions that were asked. Information brochures, green ribbons and donor cards were distributed among them.

    There were numerous queries relating to organ donation which included:

    • Why should I let my family know that I am willing to donate organs?
    • Will my family be charged if I donate?
    • I am old, can I donate?

    Stickers that contain the helpline number of MOHAN Foundation were also distributed to them. 5 drivers agreed to support the cause by pasting the stickers on their auto rickshaws and 1 eatery also agreed to support the cause by pasting the stickers on their shop. They were gifted ‘Proud to be an Organ Donor’ badges for supporting the cause.

    The National Organ Donation Toll-free Help Line - 1800 103 7100, is operational under the 'Gift Hope, Gift Life' project supported by the SBI Foundation and SBI DFHI Limited.
