PATIENT and persistent efforts to bring about social transformation can bring about spectacular results. The place is Kadaladi community block in Ramanathapuram district in Tamil Nadu. Sewa Bharati recently conducted a blood group identification camp there, as a prelude to blood donation camp. Speaking at the inaugural function as special guest, chairman of Kadaladi community block Shri Lingam Palkalai remarked: “This block is known for frequent violent incidents involving knife attacks and liberal spilling of blood. So, I am immensely pleased and surprised that the villagers have now come forward to join hands with Sewa Bharati to donate blood for saving lives.” Those in the audience immediately promised that they will not just remain confined with blood donation, but actively participate in other Sewa projects of the Sewa Bharati as well.
