Disease and illness as well as financial helplessness are inevitable parts of our life. Innumerable elements of our society do not possess enough strength to face such inevitability. Hence some voluntary organizations strive to provide helping hand to such needy individuals. The R.S.S. Janakalyan Samiti is such organization. Its objective is to provide safe and reasonably priced blood to each needy patient.

The supply of blood is the best medium of service to patients. Our aim is to establish a chain of blood banks all over Maharashtra. Kai. Wamanrao Oka Raktpedhi in Thane fulfils our objective. The Kai. Wamanrao Oka Raktpedhi will endeavour to occupy a special and leading position in the field of blood banks. It will see with the cooperation of the citizens of Thane city, that not a single patient in and around Thane suffers from the shortage of blood.

It provides blood bags at a price affordable to the poor without compromising with the quality under any circumstances. This blood bank has a scheme for supplying blood free of cost to the Thalassemia patients. The blood bank will not only serve people through its many schemes but it will also create brotherly feelings in society at large through the medium of blood.
