Hamro LifeBank is pleased to announce five small grants to support blood volunteer groups who are going out of their way to
motivate blood donors as well as help folks in need of blood during this pandemic.
We seek to support Nepal based volunteer
organizations with activities that measurably improve donor motivation and retention. Our collaboration and grant will also focus on
“safety protocol” compliance to promote donor care and experience during this crisis.
In addition to financial support, grant recipients will be provided with design and content editing support for their efforts on
awareness. They will receive support to publish their work and stories through Hamro LifeBank’s platform.
Efforts on donor motivation for continued blood collection to avoid dry blood banks
Compliance of safety protocol for donor care and experience
Efforts on blood management for patient care with factual information on blood availability without spreading unnecessary fear and noise
