Challenge

High transfusion-transmitted infections (HCV, HBV) due to unsafe blood. Low vaccination coverage among children. No specialized care in Baluchistan forces patients to travel or suffer complications. Lack of awareness, genetic counseling, and sustainable funding for free treatment.

Solution

The Thalassemia Care Center in Quetta will provide free, safe blood transfusions to eliminate infections like HCV and HBV, offer iron chelation therapy, genetic counseling, and hemophilia care. The government provides the building; Sundas Foundation manages operations, staffing, and community awareness programs for prevention and early detection.

Long-Term Impact

The center will improve survival and quality of life for thousands of patients by reducing complications and preventing infections. Genetic counseling and awareness campaigns will lower new thalassemia cases in future generations. The model can be replicated for other underserved regions in Pakistan.
