Winner of Social Contribution Award 2022

Kiran Verma, started his 21,000 kms walk for blood awareness in India from Thiruvananthapuram on 28th Dec 2021.

​

This walk is going to be the “longest blood awareness campaign ever by an individual in the world” which will run for more than 2 years.

The mission for the walk is to spread awareness about blood donation among people so that “Nobody should die waiting for blood in India after 31st December 2025”.

​

Due to rising COVID cases voluntary blood donation in India is going significantly down since the last 2 years.  This walk is to encourage people even in this tough time to go out and donate blood so that blood banks and hospitals don't run dry on blood.

​

To support his walk 40-blood donation camps has been organized in different part of the country through which more than 6178 units of blood has been collected.

​

Apart from the camps more than 1400 individual blood donors have donated blood in their personal capacity in different blood banks in India and abroad to support this walk.
