Extending Hope: Free HLA Typing Camp at GMC Patiala

On 5th April 2026, a Free HLA Typing Camp was successfully conducted at Government Medical College (GMC), Patiala, in collaboration with the Thalassemia Welfare Society. The initiative marked another meaningful step towards expanding the stem cell donor registry and offering renewed hope to patients in need of life-saving transplants.

The camp witnessed enthusiastic participation, reflecting a growing awareness and willingness within the community to support this noble cause. Each donor registration symbolized a potential second chance at life for individuals battling serious blood disorders such as thalassemia and other hematological conditions.

Beyond registrations, the camp also served as an important platform to educate people about the significance of HLA matching and the life-changing impact of stem cell donation. The collaboration stood as a powerful example of how institutions and communities can come together with compassion and purpose to make a real difference.
