Telangana Schoolteacher Leads Lifesaving Mission Through Nationwide Blood Donation Movement

A government schoolteacher from Bhadradri Kothagudem district is earning wide recognition for his remarkable community service—saving lives through a sustained blood donation movement that has grown across the country.

J Balu, an SGT at MPPS Penagadapa in Chunchupally mandal, is the founder and president of the *Young Indian Blood Donors Club*. His journey toward this mission began 15 years ago when his parents required blood transfusions. With his mother’s rare O-negative blood group, the family struggled to find a donor—an experience that profoundly changed his outlook on voluntary blood donation.

Moved by the need to help others, Balu began donating blood and coordinating donors informally in 2012. His efforts took organized shape on February 18, 2016, with the establishment of the Young Indian Blood Donors Club. Since then, the network has facilitated more than **43,000 units of blood**, supporting patients across Telangana and multiple other states.

Inspired by the social messages conveyed in films, Balu encourages people to adopt blood donation as a lifelong habit. Whenever he receives information about a patient in need, he mobilizes donors through WhatsApp groups, coordinating with volunteers, NGOs, and hospitals. The club also maintains a directory of blood donors and organizations to ensure timely assistance.

Balu acknowledges the encouragement he receives from senior police officers and local leaders, which has strengthened the club’s growing network. Beyond blood donation, the organization also conducts plasma drives, supports patients undergoing transplant procedures, helps schools with amenities, and distributes essentials to the underprivileged.

Recognizing his contributions, several NGOs have honored him with awards for humanitarian service. With the support of his associates, Balu continues to organize free blood-group testing camps and expand donor awareness across the state.

His tireless effort stands as an inspiring example of how individual commitment can transform into a nationwide movement dedicated to saving lives.
