About the project
We are proud to introduce our project: Prevent Thalassemia. This health awareness initiative is focused on educating individuals and communities about Thalassemia, a serious but preventable genetic blood disorder that affects thousands of lives every year. Thalassemia can be passed from parents to children when both parents are carriers of the gene. Many people are unaware of their carrier status, making early testing and awareness crucial. Prevent Thalassemia aims to promote responsible health choices by encouraging premarital or pre-pregnancy screening, public education, and support for affected families. Through school and college seminars, community camps, online awareness drives, and collaboration with health professionals, this project empowers individuals with knowledge about prevention, early diagnosis, and available treatments. Our mission is to reduce the number of children born with Thalassemia by promoting awareness, encouraging genetic testing, and reducing the stigma around discussing inherited conditions. With timely education and medical support, Thalassemia is preventable — and this project is a step toward that goal.
