Our Work

Ujjwal Thalassemia Brochure

We redesigned informational brochures on the intricacies of Thalassemia in order to spread awareness amongst underserved populations and encourage preventative testing. We distributed these re-designed brochures among young girls from marginalized communities during the check up camps organised under the project.

Camp 1: Community Screening & Awareness Camp

In January 2025, we organized an outreach camp that drew 82 participants from the local community in Mumbai. Of these, 29 individuals opted for thalassemia testing; 2 tested positive and were referred for further care. Moreover, we distributed redesigned brochures and led community Q&A sessions with a medical volunteer team.

Camp 2: SMES Girls’ College Outreach Camp

In February 2025, we conducted a targeted awareness and testing camp at SMES Girls’ College, Mumbai. In collaboration with the Thalassemia Society of India, we distributed redesigned brochures electronically to over 5,000 students. A senior doctor from the Society led a medical session for 250 students on genetic inheritance and early detection. Following the session, 248 students underwent CBC testing; 100 showed abnormal parameters and 9 tested positive for thalassemia. All reports were processed through a partnered lab in Delhi, with results shared confidentially with each participant.

Camp 3: Local Awareness Booth & Testing Station

In April 2025, we organized a follow-up awareness and testing camp in Mumbai to reach previously unreached participants. We set up an informational booth, distributed updated brochures, and offered free blood testing in collaboration with a medical diagnostics team. The camp engaged 40 individuals, continuing our mission to provide early screening and personalized awareness on thalassemia and anemia in urban communities.
