    This fundraiser will benefit

    People with Thalassemia

    from New Delhi, National Capital Territory of Delhi

Tax benefits for INR donations will be issued by National Thalassemia Welfare Society

I’m Anoushka Shah, a student in Grade 11 at Dhirubhai Ambani International School.

This small effort is for a very big cause, as a small donation can save the life of a child. Thalassemia is a hereditary blood disorder due to low hemoglobin, and in severe cases, children suffer deformities and require regular blood transfusions.

Thalassemia is not a disease of a few, but there are more than 5 million cases in India and more than 13.5 million globally, and approximately 1 child is born with thalassemia every hour.

I’ve been a member of the National Thalassemia Welfare Society since 2020, having the disease trait and a hemoglobin of 9. One can combat most illnesses and challenges with yoga and physical activity.

The Iron Bridge Initiative, TIBI, is founded to create awareness and provide treatment options as well as regular blood donation camps. This initiative aims at the prevention and treatment of thalassemia.

TIBI—Every drop counts…. 🩸
Every donation will save a life!

Thank you.
