Updated on Tuesday, February 17, 2026
  • The Punjab Association, Chennai invited the MOHAN Foundation to set up an information desk during their cricket tournament held on 15 February 2026 at Anna Adarsh College for Women. In collaboration with the association, an organ donation awareness camp titled Dil Deke Dekho” was organised, which saw the participation of nearly 500 members along with their families. Ms Kanishka, Project Executive, Organ Donation Ambassadors Mr Hariharan Babu and Ms Sandhya assisted with information dispensation.

    The information desk functioned from 10:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m., during which the MOHAN Foundation team actively distributed informational brochures and motivated participants and their family members to visit the desk. Various myths and queries related to organ and tissue donation were addressed, such as the eligibility of individuals with cataract surgery or diabetes, the time frame for organ retrieval after death, the organs and tissues that can be donated, and the reasons why organ donation is not feasible in every case of natural death.

    Overall, 100 brochures were distributed, 70 members visited the desk and 29 individuals pledged for organ and tissue donation, including one pledge for body donation. The MOHAN Foundation conveyed its heartfelt appreciation to the Punjab Association for offering this meaningful platform to create awareness and encourage organ donation among its members.
