Sevabharathi Erode on an Eye Donation Spree
Sevabharathi’s Erode unit has been putting a lot of energy into its eye-donation Seva. And the results are naturally, highly visible
In just August and September 2010, our Erode chapter has been able to convince and inspire three families to donate the eyes of their departed relative. That translates into life-long vision for six corneally blind patients.“Motivating the kith and kin of a departed person is the key factor in making eye donation a reality. The motivator should have the conviction to take up this highly sentimental effort” reads a testimonial we received from Sankara Eye Centre run by Sri Kanchi Kamakoti Medical Trust at Coimbatore, who were the recepients of one of those three pairs of eyes that Sevabharatih facilitated.
We thank and salute all the family members of Smt. Lakshmi Devi, Sri. Srichand S. Parwani and Sri. A. Muthusamy of Erode district for their invaluable contribution.
From spilling blood, to donating it…
Posted on Nov 16th Patient and persistent efforts to bring about social transformation can bring about spectacular results.
The place is Kadaladi Community Block in Ramanathapuram district. Sevabharathi recently conducted a blood group identification camp there, as a prelude to blood donation camps.
Speaking at the inaugural function as the Special Guest, the Chairman of Kadaladi Community Block, Sri. Lingam Palkalai remarked, “This block is known for frequent violent incidents involving knife attacks and liberal spilling of blood. So, I am immensely pleased and surprised that the villagers have come forward to join hands with Sevabharathi and donate blood to save lives.” Those in the audience immediately promised that they will not just stop with blood donation, but actively participate in the other Seva projects of Sevabharathi as well!
Touching, isn’t it?
