9th Jun 2019. A blood donation camp and awareness session on Stem Cell donation was successfully organized by HP Inc. in association with “Bangalore Medical Services Trust (BMST) “on 19th of June at GRTP Cafeteria, Whitefield Bangalore. We at HP Inc, Bangalore are proud to support the DKMS BMST Foundation India (DKMS-BMST), in their fight to save patients of Blood Cancer, Thalassemia and Aplastic Anemia. Every 5 mins someone in India is diagnosed with blood cancer, thalassemia and aplastic anemia! For many of these people, a stem cell donation from a matching donor is their only chance of survival. DKMS-BMST aims to register more potential stem cell donors to give, blood cancer patients a second chance at life. In the Stem Cell Awareness session, employees were explained how to register as a donor for stem cell and how it can save one’s life. There were 38 registrations.
