Blood Bank
Since June 6, 2022, in Gopalganj, Bihar, TAPASHYA FOUNDATION has been actively managing TAPASHYA HOPEWELL HOSPITAL and a blood bank known as TAPASHYA BLOOD CENTRE.
In just a short span, our blood center has emerged as a vital lifeline, boasting the most extensive blood stockpile across the five neighboring districts. Rapidly responding to the urgent needs of the community, we have facilitated blood transfusions for thousands of individuals in critical situations, all while levying only nominal processing fees. A significant source of our success lies in the altruistic contributions of the youth in our community, who generously donate blood to save lives. Their selfless acts of kindness have not only replenished our blood reserves but have also served as a testament to the power of collective compassion. What sets our blood center apart is the unwavering commitment of every individual involved. Our dedicated team operates with a singular focus on social service, ensuring that the act of giving extends beyond the confines of medical assistance. In this collaborative effort, we are not merely stockpiling blood; we are building a foundation of hope, community, and shared responsibility. Every donation and every life saved represents a milestone in our collective journey toward a healthier and more compassionate society.
