We are involved in humanitarian activities. The Indian Red Cross Society is one of the biggest blood banks in Karnataka. We collect more than 35000 units of blood per year with only volunteer blood donation camps across the district. We supply this blood to various hospitals and other medical organizations in need. We reach out to remote hospitals in the district for their blood requirements. As a part of our other philanthropic activities, we aid the government and other agencies in the event of any calamity such as floods, landslides etc.

  1. Why is there a need for cold storage in your organization?

We primarily collect blood through blood donation camps which are organised at a district level and supply it to hospitals and other organizations in need of it. Therefore, to maintain the safety and quality of collected blood and its components while storing and transporting them, an efficient cold chain infrastructure is critical.
