The chain of 12 strangers who saved a mother

Fathimath, postpartum haemorrhage · IGMH

When Fathimath began bleeding after childbirth, the hospital put out an emergency O+ broadcast. Within two hours, twelve donors — a taxi driver, two students, a fisherman, a nurse off-shift — lined up. None had met her. None asked for anything. She held her daughter that evening because a dozen strangers chose to show up. This is what RedDonor was built for.

Donor · Malé My 30th donation

I gave my first pint at 19, scared of the needle. Thirty donations later, I've helped save up to 90 lives. It costs me an hour; it gives someone a lifetime.

Recipient · Malé A second chance at life

After a major surgery I needed six units in two days. Strangers gave their blood so I could see my daughter's wedding. I donate now too — passing it forward.
