The Thalassemia Sickle Cell Society (TSCS) is dedicated to supporting children afflicted with thalassemia and sickle cell disease. They provide essential services such as blood transfusions, operate a blood bank and diagnostic center, and have collaborated with medical institutions like Bhagwan Mahaveer Jain hospital, Narayan Hurdayalaya, Sankalp Foundation Bengaluru, Electronic Mart India Ltd and other philanthropists, corporate bodies under their CSR initiative for bone marrow transplants. TSCS aims to eliminate these genetic blood disorders by promoting awareness and offering comprehensive medical care.
