The genesis of life-enriching Project 'Life' took place in 1978 with a simple wish to spread love, hope and dreams among the not-so-fortunate in our society. With the inauguration of Rajkot Voluntary Blood Bank & Research Centre on 6th December 1981, first blood bank in Saurashtra, the desire to give the best to our brethren propelled us to operate on international standards, thereby getting us recognition from all over the world. After climbing one great hill, one only finds that there are many more hills to climb. And so the subsequent years saw the initiation of a host of projects in the fields of Education, Environment, Health-Care, Housing in Tribal Areas and Women Empowerment.

We take pride in reporting that our heartfelt efforts during the past 32 years have brought smile back on more than millions of faces. But there are more wounds to be healed, more lives to be nurtured. We have chosen to help repair the broken world.  And it is not a challenging task that can be met with within a stipulated period, but it is a constant journey of a lifetime.

More than 2,50,000 lives have been served, thanks to our blood bank. Every year 13,000 students and above study in schools constructed by Project 'Life'. 13,00,000 and above persons have been reached through Thalassaemia Awareness Drive and 6,00,000 and above persons have been screened for Thalassaemia (Trait). Over 1,300 houses have been financed by Project 'Life' - Mumbai. Over 2,500 widows have been trained to earn a living on their own. We also work to preserve the environment by distributing plants (of 6’ and above) over 2,00,000 and we train people in Yoga and meditation. There is a lot more work to be done.
