Bharat Organ Yatra 2.0
Organ donation is the mounting need of the hour. Despite the existing organ donations in India, there are only 1 for every million people who donate organs and more than 500 people die each day waiting for organs. This alarming figure needs immediate remedial actions.
ReBirth Foundation has been working on spreading awareness about organ donation since 2015. Out of the many innovative initiatives of ReBirth, Bharat Organ Yatra was conceptualized to reach the masses.

What is the need for Bharat Organ Yatra in 2020?
It is the 3rd year of ReBirth’s Bharat Organ Yatra and the alarming ratio of donor to recipient still remains 1:10000 in India. Spreading awareness about the sensitive topic of organ donation will always be an ongoing effort.
