Challenge

Karachi's size and population put heavy pressure on public hospitals. Many low-income families cannot afford regular transfusions or chelation drugs, and unscreened blood exposes patients to HCV and HBV. Awareness of carrier screening and genetic counseling is limited.

Solution

The center will provide free, screened transfusions, iron chelation therapy, genetic counseling and diagnostics. The government provides space; Sundas runs operations, staffing and community awareness programs.

Long-Term Impact

Better survival and quality of life for thousands of patients, reduced financial strain, and fewer new cases through counseling and screening.
