Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to announce that, as part of our ongoing efforts, the Pediatric Hematology-Oncology Chapter of the Indian Academy of Pediatrics, in collaboration with the Central Body of the Indian Academy of Pediatrics, has launched the  "Bara Mahine, Bara Poster" (12 Months, 12 Poster) campaign  last September. This initiative aims to shed light on various aspects of childhood cancer and enhance awareness among pediatricians and healthcare professionals across the country.

We are thrilled to unveil the next poster titled  “Liquide Lifelines: The Vital Role of Blood Products in Pediatric Hematology-Oncology.”   

Every year on 14th June, the world celebrates World Blood Donor Day, a global tribute to the millions of voluntary, unpaid blood donors who give others a second chance at life. Their generosity saves lives, strengthens communities, and embodies the spirit of solidarity. It’s a day to say thank you, but also to spotlight the ongoing, urgent need for safe, regular blood donations. We are excited to share this poster on the occasion of World Blood Donor Day, highlighting the crucial role of blood products in pediatric hematology-oncology.

We encourage you to share this poster widely within your professional networks to foster awareness about childhood cancer. Your participation and support are essential to our unified mission to create a positive impact. 

Thank you for your unwavering dedication to this vital cause. Together, we can enhance awareness and improve the outcomes for our young patients.
