WELCOME TO CHIRANJEEVI CHARITABLE
FOUNDATION
The idea of
establishing The Chiranjeevi Charitable Foundation, had taken roots many
years ago, when one fine day Chiranjeevi, the popular film star from
Andhra pradesh, reflected on the fame and glory that the Telugu audiences
across AP bestowed upon him.
Chiranjeevi was keen to repay the society for the unlimited love and
affection being showered on him by the millions of people across A.P .He
felt that the energy and enthusiasm of those millions had to be
channelized into something more meaningful for the welfare of the society.
Chiranjeevi
sought expert study to identify areas where extensive public participation
can help build a healthy society.
There
were thousands of poor and needy people who were suffering because of
inadequate infrastructure that facilitated safe and screened blood supply.
While thousands were suffering on account of being visually impaired. The
study also revealed that there were many misconceptions and pre conceived
notions about blood and eye donations. The experts opined that a person of
Chiranjeevi's stature and caliber can bring about a significant change in
the situation for the better, by his active participation.
Thus 'The Chiranjeevi Blood Bank' was started in the month of October 1998
with an aim to provide safe and screened blood, free of cost to the poor
and needy.I |
