On March 20, 2026, MOHAN Foundation, in association with the Regional Institute of Medical Science (RIMS), Imphal, conducted an organ donation awareness talk at the New OPD, RIMS, as part of its ongoing public education and outreach initiatives. The session was led by Ms. Moirangthem Priya Devi and Mr. Elangbam Paringanba Singh, Program Executives, MOHAN Foundation.

Ms. Priya initiated the session by introducing the team and outlining the objectives of the program. She explained the concept of organ donation and clearly differentiated between living and deceased donation. She also highlighted to the acute shortage of organ donors in Manipur, emphasizing the significant gap between the demand for organs and their availability, largely due to the low rate of deceased donations. She emphasized that organ donation provides hope and a renewed chance at life for those in need.

She further stressed that the buying and selling of organs is illegal and punishable under the law. Addressing common myths, she reassured participants that organ donation does not cause any disfigurement and that the dignity and respect of donors are always preserved.

The session concluded with Ms. Priya expressing her appreciation for the active participation of the attendees and encouraging them to pledge their organs. She highlighted that a single donor can save multiple lives, making organ donation one of the most valuable contributions to humanity.

Informative leaflets were distributed, and the session was attended by approximately 20 participants.
