Osmania University Medical Alumni Association

Dear Friends,
 
Please join Kakatiya Medical College Alumni Kartheek Ganta, Shyam Odeti, Rajesh Gujjula, Deepak Garipalli, Chaitanya Chekkilla, and Rahul Nayani, Namratha Vontela and others in this crucial initiative to provide resources for proper care to patients in the region of Warangal and Telangana.

COVID -19 has created an unprecedented humanitarian crisis in India.  Shortages of oxygen and medical equipment are daily stories now. Warangal and Telangana are no exceptions and have been reporting daily spikes in COVID-19 related cases and deaths. As Kakatiya Medical College Alumni, we want to pitch in and do our part towards helping our Alma Mater. We are requesting donations from KMC Alumni and from other kind-hearted souls who can contribute to the cause.

We are working with Osmania University Medical Alumni Association(501c non-profit organization), aka Osmania Gandhi Kakatiya Telangana Medical Alumni Association of America (OGKTMA.COM), to send hospital-grade Oxygen Concentrators and flow meters to MGM Hospital (Mahatma Gandhi Memorial Hospital), Warangal. Depending on our capability, we plan to offer supplies to other hospitals in the region.

Donations are tax-deductible. It’s our greatest hope that you’ll be able to join us in this honest effort. And please spread the word!!

As all of you know, there is a crisis in India, as Covid-19 ramps up again, causing more than 350,000 new cases and more than 3,000 deaths everyday. Added to the already grim situation, there is a severe shortage of oxygen, medicines, and required medical equipment, leading to deaths requiring multiple mass cremations. The Indian government is sending multiple oxygen tanks everywhere any way they can, by planes and trains. But that is not enough. Multiple Indians are now going to social media to send S.O.S. messages that ask for more oxygen tanks, hospital beds, medicines, etc.

Our goal is to support hospitals with oxygen concentrators and cylinders, nasal cannulas, and other equipment.

Osmania University Medical Alumni Association of America Inc is a non-governmental, non-profit organization, which is striving to provide essential medical equipment to hospitals and communities in India to overcome this Covid-19 crisis.
