Ahmedabad, June 25
To commemorate the 63rd birthday of Group Chairman Gautam Adani on June 24, the Adani Foundation—the social welfare and development arm of the Adani Group—organised a nationwide mega blood donation drive across 206 cities in 21 states and two union territories, surpassing last year’s record of 25,282 units.
Conducted under the Adani Healthcare team’s stewardship, the initiative saw overwhelming participation
from Adani Group employees and partners. With 27,661 units (about 11,100 litres) collected, this drive
stands to benefit over 83,000 patients, offering life-saving support through multiple blood components—Whole Blood, PCV, Platelet Concentrates, Plasma, FFP, Cryoprecipitate, and Albumin.
“I deeply thank our Adani Parivaar for stepping forward and making this act of seva count,” said Dr. Priti
Adani, Chairperson of the Adani Foundation. “Your generosity will touch countless lives,” she added.
The drive was conducted in partnership with Red Cross blood banks and government hospitals. It was
supported by a team of over 3,000 doctors, paramedics, data operators, and administrative staff from
across the Adani Group.
For the first time, the drive went global as blood donation camps were organized at Colombo West
International Terminal (CWIT) Port, Colombo and also at Dar-es-Salam Port, Tanzania with over 100
donors participating in the noble cause.
The exercise has been part of an annual tradition since 2011 to mark the birthday of Shri Adani. The drive
honours Shri Adani’s guiding philosophy of “Seva hi Sadhana hai” (service is worship) through the
Foundation’s community-led action and initiatives. The non-profit arm of the Adani Group remains
committed to an all-inclusive, equitable and sustainable development of the communities.
Since 1996, the Adani Foundation, social welfare and development arm of the Adani Group, has remained agile and deeply committed to making strategic social investments for sustainable outcomes across India. It is empowering and enriching the lives of children, women, youth, and marginalized communities in the core areas of education, health and nutrition, sustainable livelihoods, climate action, and community development.
The strategies of the Foundation are integrated in national priorities and global Sustainable Development Goals. The Adani Foundation is currently operating in 7,060 villages across 21 states, positively impacting 9.6 million lives.
