International Women’s DayFrom Life-Givers to Life Savers: Sowmiya’s Inspiring Story

DKMS-BMST highlights the importance of young stem cell donors who are leading the charge for inclusive registries

March 07, 2024: In a bid to increase awareness about blood stem cell donation, DKMS BMST Foundation India, a non-profit organisation dedicated to the fight against blood cancer, celebrates young women who recently donated stem cells. Recognising women blood stem cell donors ensures more participation of young people in the stem cell registry, increasing the chances of finding a match and ultimately saving lives.

Sowmiya, a 28-year-old medical professional from Tamil Nadu, is an inspiring example of a woman committed to making a difference through stem cell donation. In March 2021, Sowmiya was matched with a patient. However, due to family concerns and COVID-19, she could not come forward for donation. Nevertheless, she was informed that she was the only person in the world whose HLA (tissue type) matched to a blood cancer patient who desperately needed a stem cell transplant to survive. “The idea of being a lifesaving match for a patient was very captivating,” said Sowmiya. The patient could not find any other match and Sowmiya agreed to give a second chance at life to this patient after two years.

Sowmiya had some concerns and felt a bit anxious because her family was not supporting her decision, but the DKMS-BMST team addressed all her worries. They conducted various tests to ensure her health and well-being for donation, keeping her informed at every step and explaining the process thoroughly.

“Something so simple could potentially save someone’s life,” Sowmiya said. “I realized that the chances of finding a perfectly matched HLA type are one in a million, and I was ready and willing to be a donor,” she added.

Indians are underrepresented in stem cell registries. Increasing female participation can inspire others to follow. Their actions help create a more diverse and inclusive registry, boosting the chances of finding a match for anyone in need. “We hope Sowmiya ‘s story encourages more women to take this simple yet potentially life-changing step,” said Patrick Paul, CEO, DKMS-BMST. “Together, we can build a strong and diverse stem cell registry offering hope to patients in need.”

Every 5 minutes, someone in India is diagnosed with blood cancer or a blood disorder like Thalassemia or Aplastic Anemia. Many such patients are children and young people whose only chance of recovery is a stem cell transplant. For a successful stem cell transplant, the patient needs to find an HLA (Human Leukocyte Antigen) matched donor. Most often, the majority of the patients are unable to receive a transplant due to the unavailability of a matching blood stem cell donor. With very few individuals signing up as potential blood stem cell donors, finding a matching donor is difficult. This increases the need for more people of Indian ethnicity to register themselves.
DKMS-BMST urges all eligible individuals to consider registering as stem cell donors. The process is simple and takes five minutes of your time.

To register as a potential stem cell donor, you must be a healthy Indian adult between 18 and 55 years of age. When you are ready to register, all you need to do is complete a consent form and swab the inside of your cheeks to collect your tissue cells. Your tissue sample is then sent to the lab to be analyzed and listed anonymously on the international search platform for matching stem cell donors. If you’re eligible, take the first step to register as a blood stem cell donor by ordering your home swab kit at http://www.dkms-bmst.org/register

So far, DKMS-BMST India has registered over 1,00,000 stem cell donors in the country, out of which 35,000 are women. DKMS-BMST has facilitated 110 stem cell transplants, out of which 14 donations are made by matched women donors, significantly impacting the fight against blood cancer. The organisation aims to register more donors in India to give as many patients as possible a second chance at life.

IKEA celebrates March 8th as Equality Day, in line with its commitment to promote equality at home and workplace

India, 08th March 2024: IKEA, one of the world’s most loved and trusted home furnishings brand, honors Equality Day on March 8th, a day traditionally known as International Women’s Day. This is IKEA’s way of bringing an inclusive environment alive and promoting equality and diversity within homes and workplaces alike with this year’s theme being ‘Equality starts at home’.
IKEA’s recent Life at Home Report 2023 (LAH) highlighted that 34% of women report doing more household chores than others they live with, highlighting the importance of addressing gender imbalances in domestic responsibilities. The company believes that gender equality is a human right and that every organization has a role to play in solving this gap.
Recognizing the importance of addressing equality, IKEA has implemented policies that prioritize work-life balance, offering benefits such as Gender Equal Pay, a predictable 5-day workweek with schedules communicated a month in advance, healthcare for extended family members and same sex partners, parental leave for both mothers and fathers alike, and an employee assistance program to support with mental wellbeing.
In its recent effort to extend these values of equality and inclusion to a larger community, IKEA partnered with Standard Chartered Bank to launch a year-long association named ‘Prerna initiative’, starting with a webinar series titled ‘Diversity Dialogues’ . The series will host effective dialogues and address day to day challenges to solve for Equality, Diversity, & Inclusion (ED&I). The series kicked off with the first episode featuring Susanne Pulverer, CEO of IKEA, and Zarin Daruwala, CEO of Standard Chartered Bank, exchanging their learnings and thoughts on increasing the country’s women workforce participation from the current 33%.
On the occasion Susanne Pulverer, CEO and Chief Sustainability Officer, IKEA India said, “At IKEA, we always celebrate our diverse workforce, and how we truly bring this value to life every day at work and beyond. Truly creating value through equality means going beyond gender, nationality, or race, and creating equal opportunities to grow. Today, 50% of our Ingka Group Country CEOs are women, we’re breaking gender and intellectual stereotypes every day, our colleagues bring the right values both to their homes and here at IKEA. This collaboration with Standard Chartered Bank to launch our new webinar series, ‘Prerna’, is our effort create a community that is as diverse as the world is, and as inclusive as the world should be.”
As part of its ongoing efforts to champion gender equality, the company highlights that 50% of Ingka Group Country CEOs are women, showcasing company’s dedication to setting best industry standards when it comes to gender diversity and inclusion.
Zarin Daruwala, Cluster CEO, India & South Asia Markets, Standard Chartered Bank said, “DE&I challenges homogeneity and biases, and creates an environment where all voices are heard and valued. I am pleased about the launch of Prerna – a DE&I collaboration between IKEA and SCB. I am confident both organizations will benefit from each other and there is a great opportunity for the broader teams to engage, learn and grow.”
IKEA is committed to offering fair treatment at workplace along with providing equal opportunities – regardless of age, gender identity, sexual orientation, physical ability, ethnicity, race, nationality, religion, or any other dimension of one’s identity.
