It is a devastating fact that around 500,000 people in India lose their lives every year due to the non-availability of organs. About 150,000 wait for kidney transplants, and only 5,000 people get to undergo the procedure. Have you ever wondered, although we are home to 1.2 billion people, a lot of people die each year due to various causes, and yet most of us do not choose to donate organs and bury them with our bodies, losing a precious opportunity to help the suffering people even when we or our loved ones are dying. Imagine if all of us pledged to donate organs; no more people need to lose their faith in waiting. Pass your little GIFT OF LIFE !
In the year 2016, Sri Ramakrishna Hospital has etched it's name in the history by "The most people to register as organ donors within eight hours"
