On November 21, 2025, Mr. Gabriel Pereira, Organ Donation Ambassador with the MOHAN Foundation, set up an organ donation information desk at Bay 15 Resort, Dona Paula, Goa.
The camp was organised by the Models Group in association with the Indian Red Cross Society, Goa, and the Goa Medical College Blood Bank, Bambolim, in fond memory of the late Mr. Peter Vaz, founder of the Models Group, commemorating his birth anniversary.
The Models Group has grown from a humble real estate firm into one of Goa’s most trusted names in development, tourism, and community building. From landmark residential projects to iconic hospitality ventures and a celebrated football club, the organisation’s legacy is built on innovation, integrity, and impact. Today, under the leadership of Mrs. Natalina Vaz, along with Danira Vaz and Diogo Nathan Vaz, the Models Group continues to preserve the legacy of Mr. Peter Vaz while elevating real estate development in Goa to greater heights.
A total of 77 attendees from various establishments of the Models Group donated blood.
Gabriel Pereira distributed around 60 sets of frequently asked questions on organ donation and engaged with donors, emphasising the importance of organ donation. He thanked the blood donors for saving 3 to 4 lives through their act of generosity and highlighted that by saying yes to organ donation, they could save up to 8 lives and enhance up to 50 lives through tissue donation. As a result, 10 individuals took organ donation pledge cards.
Mr. Gabriel expressed his gratitude to Mr. Rio, Program Officer, Indian Red Cross Society, Goa, for inviting the MOHAN Foundation to participate in the camp.
