There are more than 63 districts in India with NO blood bank (based on 2021 report).
The current number of such districts would be higher due to recent creation of new districts in India.
Most of the people die waiting for blood in these districts due to inaccessibility.
More than 12,000 people dies waiting for blood EVERY SINGLE DAY in India as the country is facing shortage of atleast 4 million new blood donors annually.
We at Simply Blood can’t solve all these problems alone and thats why we are taking one step at a time.
1) The first one step we took in 2017 was to create a platform which can be used to aggregate blood donors from all across the nation and that’s how we created #SimplyBlood.
We saw that even after creating world’s third largest online community of blood donors after #Friends2Support and American #RedCross, we could only save around 70,000 potential lives.
We failed to get overall success rate of more that 22-25% and we found that there is a lack of awareness among people.
2) Then to create a mass awareness, I personally walked (walk is still on) more than 21,000 across 22 states/UT in around 28 months.
My posts or message or appeal to #donateblood reached out to around 200 million people online and around 2 million offline.
150+ blood donation camps were organised and more than 50,000 people donated blood during my walk.
Then I saw there are many places which can’t be reached by road as quickly as we can in urban areas (like Northeastern states).
3) So, here we are at Change With One Foundation joining hands with TSAW Drones
To connect all the districts with NO blood bank across India through drones to deliver blood.
This partnership or association is going to revolutionise the whole blood donation ecosystem with #TSAWDrones’ ground breaking technology.
We are going to start our services soon in NorthEastern states.
“Nobody will die waiting for blood in India after 31st December 2025”
That’s our commitment to #India
When we fail reach there by walking, we will run.
When we will fail to reach by running, we will fly.
And here we are… soon going to fly and #SaveLives in places where our government fails.
A big thanks to Kishan Tiwari and Rimanshu Pandey for bringing us on their board. Hope to see the magic of their #drones!
