Although the Blood Donation Organisation including the Emergency Wing, Disha and Rakta Kranti make up the core working wings of Sankalp India Foundation, there are small other teams who do not face the world but provide tons of support to these core working wings. Be it the administration wing, finance wing, resources or public relations these internal teams are ina a way holding the teams tightly bound. These teams too have been busy over the last few days fixing a lot of internal issues.

Sankalp India Foundation had an evenful October at Bangalore. Amid all the celebrations and festivities of Dusshera, Diwali volunteers made sure they stuck o their core jobs to ensure the organiation's work never came to a halt. Here is a snapshot of what happened in the previous month in Bangalore for Sankalp

Rakta Kranti Bangalore

Sankalp India Foundation is a voluntary youth organisation. Yes, a youth organisation. The eledest in the team are just 27 :). The youngest ones are 18. The organisation's biggest strength has been the strong and committed worforce. Every year new energy is pumped into the organisation with the coming in of new volunteers.

The entire worforce @ Sankalp follows one mantra. Looking for blood? Call 9480044444. That is the number of the Disha helpline. The helpline guides people to the nearest place where safe blood is available. But sometimes there is no way, there is no place either near or far where the unit is available. What then. Is there that someone or something that can help?

2009 was the year when Sankalp became a full blown state wide organisation. All 3 major workin wings of Sankalp, namely the Emergency Wing, Disha and Rakta Kranti spread their wings. Disha connected the best blood banks across the state to the helpline. Volunteers of the emergeny wing took up blood requests from every nook and corner of the state and learnt about how effectively to handle blood emergencies. Rakta Kranti was split wide open into Rakta Kranti Bangalore and Rakta Kranti Karnataka.
