Faiz Foundation Blood Donors [FFBD] – hope of life

Unavailability of pure blood is a major health concern Bangladesh since long. According to WHO “Bangladesh has received only 31 percent of its blood from voluntary donors. This number is very low, compared to other countries in South-East Asia, such as Thailand, India and Sri Lanka, where the number reaches as high as 95 percent. More than two thirds of blood donations come from relatives and friends of the patients”.

This cardinal risk factor for health care disorders can be solved up to 98% by creating digitalization of blood donors’ data and by reaching these to blood seekers with the help of digital finger.A wide range of responsive, updated and popular digital platform is only way to ensure the transmission of safe blood as well as instant availability of donors at the nearest point of blood receiver. Faiz Foundation has already built such platform where 33000+ members are actively responding themselves in terms of donating and receiving blood throughout the country.

First thing we do is to motivate people to be aware to registrar his/her name as donor. Besides social media promotion we arrange lots of awareness programs like seminar, road march, social gathering, advertisement, campaign, article writing, and leaflet distribution. It’s a continuous process, once a donor is listed, he is stared to be followed and stimulated to donate blood by so many ways. People who need blood, they also insist them on donating blood when needed. Another way that we do practice; we accumulate almost all small platforms of each district of Bangladesh under a single umbrella of FFBD, even they can work within themselves freely.
