Story of Change
Rotary TTK Blood Centre has had a significant impact on the lives of individuals and families who depend on blood transfusions. One such individual is a patient who has been receiving blood transfusions from the center since childhood. The financial burden of regular transfusions is significant, and the support of the foundation has made a tremendous difference in ensuring that patients can afford their medications.
Furthermore, the patient's daughter, who is now 11 years old, has not experienced any post-transfusion complications, which is a testament to the quality of care provided at the center. The patient expressed their gratitude towards the management of the foundation for their thoughtfulness, care, and generosity, and they would like to personally thank the people behind this initiative.
