RK Colleges One blood donation drive is being planned in each of the following places: Mysore, Davangere and Kolar. Please follow the events section for specific details. There are plans to include Raichur and Gulbarga districts in the working scope of Rakta Kranti Colleges.

DMMG: While the focus is on expert level intervention in the relief process, here are few things that are likely to change:

  1. We will provide a method for the individuals to commit their contributions to disaster relief even before the disaster has struck. These people will have deep insight into the Sankalp Disaster Fightback Preparedness. This contribution will be the backpane of the relief that we plan to deliver in the early hours after disaster.

  2. People interested in Disaster relief in a greater sense will be invited to be a part of the Disaster Relief Strategy.

While our focus is still blood, our aim will be to provide relief at lightening pace in the wake of disasters. People keen on knowing more can mail sankalp.admin@gmail.com.

Rakta Kranti Schools: The RKS team will continue to focus on conducting blood awareness weeks in as many schools as possible.

Disha The Disha stickers and posters are being sent to all the blood banks associated with the helpline in all the districts. This is done stage by stage. In the coming month, the following districts are planned to be covered: Hubli, Dharwad, Davangere. To increase the productivity of these stickers other ways about increasing the awareness about the helpline are being explored. One of the methods is to go to each and every Blood bank which is associated with helpline a personal visit again to those blood banks.
